Sticky Plum Chicken
A quick and easy chicken recipe.
Ingredients
- 1kg Chicken Breasts
- 1 Jar Ayam Brand Plum Sauce 210ml
- 2 Tablespoons Hoisin Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons Light Soy Sauce
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- Cornflour for coating chicken
- Oil for browning coated chicken
Instructions
- Combine plum sauce, hoisin sauce, light soy sauce and minced garlic in a bowl and set aside
- Cut chicken breasts in half, then into approx 2 to 2.5cm chunks.
- Coat chicken in cornflour
- Add oil to wok or pan and brown coated chicken in batches
- Place chicken into slow cooker
- Pour sauce over chicken and stir to coat chicken pieces.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 2-3 hours
- Serve with your choice of boiled rice, fried rice and/or vegetables
- NOTE: This recipe does NOT produce a lot of juice, so I'd say do not overcook or else there is a risk the sauce will stick to bowl.
- The plum flavour is tangier than the honey version, but still has a sweetness to it. I used Ayam brand sauce that was 210ml net, but any plum sauce can be substituted.
- The final dish does not yield much sauce as the chicken is coated but not soaked. If you like your dishes saucier I'd suggest adding more plum sauce and/or some water to yield more juice.
- Adapted from the Sticky Honey Chicken recipe submitted by Shaya. Thanks for the idea Shaya!

This recipe was bomb! Kinda just eyeballed the measurements and used wings instead of chicken breast, but damn, so good. Recommend using chili flakes in the sauce for a bit of a kick. ?
When it says cover…does that mean with a tea towel under the lid or just the lid?
Always just a lid unless it specifies with a tea towel 🙂
Miss 7 tastes this & loudly exclaims in all her 7’ness …
“This chicken is LITERALLY amazing”

Made this for the first time tonight and it was absolutely delicious, next time I might double the liquid as once cooked as stayed in recipe doesn’t yield much sauce but nonetheless this recipe is so yummy and a must try for everyone e
Omg! This is delicious! Hubby said too cook again and going to try with pork. I did add extra sauce. ?
Made this last night, very yummy! Added 1/4 cup of water at the start to avoid sticking to bowl. Served with mashed pumpkin ( man of the house doesn’t like potato) carrot and broccoli.
Wonderful! Thanks so much for taking the time to come back and leave your feedback – you’re awesome!
Made it for the first time last night – so easy and very tasty! Cant wait to make it again. I only used 1 large chicken breast, cubed… it was cooked in 2 hrs 15 mins. I did coat and brown the cubes, as instructed (usually I wouldn’t), which I think made all the difference.
Thanks so much for that awesome feedback!! 🙂
