Crock Pot Sesame Chicken

We all need another crock pot recipe in our arsenal, right?  This one is super easy and delicious with Asian flavors.  Just cut up some chicken, make a delicious sauce to pour over the top, turn on the crock pot and forget it!  Just before serving steam up the rice of your choice, top with the chicken and dive in!  I hope you enjoy!

Crock Pot Sesame Chicken (adapted from keyingredient.com)

1 1/2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in 1" pieces
1/4 c. honey
1/4 c. low sodium soy sauce
2 T. dried onion flakes
2 T. ketchup
1/2 t. garlic powder
1 t. salt
2 t. cornstarch
3 T. water
1 T. sesame seeds

Spray a 4 qt. crock pot with cooking spray and add the chicken pieces.  In a medium bowl whisk together the honey, soy sauce, onion flakes, ketchup, garlic powder and salt and set aside.  In a small bowl stir together the cornstarch and water.  Add the cornstarch mixture to the honey and soy sauce mixture and whisk to combine.  Pour over the chicken.  Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-4 hours.  Garnish with sesame seeds and serve over rice (I used brown rice.) 

4 servings (304 calories each serving, not including rice) according to my calculator on loseit.com
