Would this work with chicken breasts? And would cookimgvtome be the same?
Thanks!

One of my family’s all time favourites! Love this dish, often cook with stir fry rice and bok choy. Have doubled this and it worked really well when I had extended family over. Delicious and simple, packs in a lot of flavour.

This recipe is awesome. I could drink the sauce. Only thing I did differently was use boneless thighs.

Yum! Followed this super-easy recipe exactly, except I used boneless, skinless, thigh fillets. Regularly basted during cooking. I was able to fit 4 thigh fillets comfortably in my 1.5 litre slow cooker. Served with brown rice and steamed broccolini. Delicious meal!

What about boneless cuts? Would the cooking time still be the same?

I think if it fits there’s no reason you couldn’t multiply it like that 🙂 However don’t do the cooking time x 3

Hi Paulene, one of our faves….absolutely delicious 💕 Just wondering if tripling the recipe would be pushing it or would I be best to do in 3 batches? Need to feed a large group and want to make this & freeze it! Thankyou 🙂

This recipe is on my meal planner. Everyone loves it & I cook it regularly. I have chicken thighs & drumsticks marinating ready to cook tomorrow night but this (sorry Pauline) time I’m cooking them in the AF just to see how crispy the skin gets.

Can you use hot chilli sauce instead of the sweet chilli sauce
Paulene @ Slow Cooker Central
January 17, 2019
The sweet soy is more or a syrupy sweet version
Regular soy would be too salty
Maria

If I can’t find sweet soy sauce can I use regular soy sauce?

Made this for the family tonight, was yummo!
Only thing is was wondering if I did something wrong? There was a lot of runny liquid in the sauce and it didn’t come out glazed looking like the photo.

So good. We used chicken breast and cooked 2 hours high. No leftovers so safe to say it was a big hit

What can I say omg Paulene you have done it again, I cooked this last night and absolutely love it 😍 I’m going to cook it using chicken nibbles to serve with the Christmas lunch
Thanks again 5 stars

I’m not sure as I don’t eat GF
The kecap manis is a thick, syrup like, sweeter version of soy if that helps you find an alternative
Wendy Mirza
November 16, 2018
Is there a gluten free alternative for the kecap manis? Or should I just use regular GF soy?

Wow, i made this tonight for the first time tonight and it didn’t disappoint, the flavour is absolutely delish , even my fussy husband loved it

Delicious!!!
Great recipe for the whole family! My fussy little eaters (4 & 6 yrs) even asked for more!
I used boneless chicken thighs, cooked for 4 hours on low in the slow cooker. It was a bit runny so to thicken it up I used equal parts of cornflour and juices and cooked it through on the stove top. It will definitely be a regular meal in our house 🙂

So yummy and so cheap!!!! Made exactly as per recipe and then finished in the oven to crisp up for 10mins! Served with air fried chips and coleslaw! Hubby (who dislikes eating chicken with bones because it’s ‘annoying’) loved it!

Thank you .
Love this recipe.
First tried it with a turkey hindquarter and was delicious.
Now it is also my latest fab chicken wing recipe when I make them for my nibblies.

O M G! Its been a long time since I have found a new recipe that not only the hubby likes but both the kids! Not one but BOTH kids! Thank you so much. I used about a dozen drumsticks and double the sauce ingredients except for the sweet chilli as I was a little wary for the kids. This will be regular. just delicious with rice to mop up the awesome sauce and greens

Another one to add to the favourites list. Flavours are absolutely amazing. I did add capsicum & shallots about 3.5 hrs into cooking. Skimmed fat off the top regularly & thickened at the end with cornflour. 5 stars🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I tried this last week and it will definitely be a repeated dish in our house! I used assorted cuts, doubled the sauce (except for the soy), put in the oven at the end to brown a little while I thickened the sauce! Loved it!!!!

This recipe really is magnificent. Personally in my top 4 finds on this site. So easy and so tasty!!! And this time I got organized and allowed some sauce thickening time at the end. That worked really well with a bit of cornflour. Yesterday I had to use boneless skinless chicken thighs as I had these leftover. They weren’t the biggest and I wish I’d dropped cooking time to 4 hours. They were still lovely…there are never leftovers when I do this and I’m yet to have the patience to take a photo…I just want to eat them asap!!
The kind of recipe I’d give 10 stars if I could!

Cooked this for the first time yesterday. It was easy and delicious. Thank you for the Recipe Paulene, it is magnificent.
I did remove some of the oil from the SC at the end and thickened the sauce. My Family are all over full and moaning on the lounge. A total success.

I cooked this for the first time today and it was excellent. I drained a bit of the oil on top and thickened to make a delicious sauce. Served with fried rice. No one can move cos they are so full. Thank you for this easy and delicious recipe.

Have a friend of 20 years arriving from the USA 🇺🇸 today that I haven’t seen for 17 of those years. Cooking this up for dinner tonight. Hope it doesn’t let me down to impress 😊😊

Magnificent and wanted to do it again almost immediately!! A very easy prep. A very easy cook and baste. An extremely delicious result. So good all my family wanted more (including the fussiest teenager in the world). Without doubt I’m doing this again soon. Thanks Paulene.
My leaning tip for next time – be prepared to thicken the sauce at the end, before serving. I couldnt wait any longer and just went for it. Even in the leftovers.

Forgot to say it is gluten free for coeliacs using gluten free sauces.

Great recipe. Family gave it thumbs up. Put chicken in oven for last 15 minutes to get crunchy skin. Just so easy and delicious.
