Prep Time

This recipe is incredibly easy to prepare and only takes about 10 minutes of prep time. You'll want to dice your onion and mince your garlic before you start.

Cook Time

This recipe takes about 3-4 hours to cook in the crock pot. You can cook it on low for a longer period of time or on high for a shorter period of time. If you're in a hurry, you can cook it on high for about 2-3 hours. The chicken should be cooked through and the sauce should be thick and creamy.

Recipe Tips

For a spicier version of this recipe, add more red pepper flakes. You can also add a diced bell pepper for a bit of color and flavor. If you can’t find sweet chili sauce, you can substitute it with teriyaki sauce or honey mustard. To make the sauce thicker, add a tablespoon of cornstarch or arrowroot powder. If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this recipe in a large saucepan on the stovetop.
