Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by trimming any excess fat from the chicken thighs or breasts and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and ginger and whisk until fully blended.
  3. Place the chicken pieces at the bottom of your crockpot evenly for proper heat distribution.
  4. Carefully pour the sauce over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated well and stir gently.
  5. Layer the sliced bell peppers and broccoli florets on top of the chicken and sauce.
  6. Cover the crockpot and set to cook on low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
  7. Check that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  8. If desired, thicken the sauce by removing it from the crockpot and simmering it on the stove until reduced.
  9. Return the chicken and veggies to the crockpot and serve warm, garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.
