Crock Pot Citrus Glazed Chicken

This chicken is a perfect balance between sweet and salty.  The orange sections and orange juice provide the sweet and the chili sauce and soy sauce provide the salt.  Cook all day in the crock pot, serve with rice and enjoy!

Crock Pot Citrus Glazed Chicken (adapted from crockpot365.blogspot.com)

2 oranges, peeled and separated into segments
4 chicken leg quarter pieces (leg and thigh together), 8 chicken thighs or 12 chicken legs (I used the leg quarters)
1/2 t. black pepper
1 t. salt
1 onion, sliced in rings
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 c. orange juice
1/2 c. chili sauce
1 T. low sodium soy sauce
1 T. molasses
1 t. ground mustard
1 t. ground ginger

Put the orange segments into the bottom of your slow cooker and place the chicken pieces directly on top.  Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add the onion rings on top of the chicken.  In a mixing bowl combine the garlic, orange juice, chili sauce, soy sauce, molasses, mustard and ginger and whisk to combine.  Pour the mixture over the chicken, cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.  Serve over rice (I used brown) with a spoonful of accumulated juices.

I put this in the crock pot the night before and cooked it the next day and it came out great!
