The recipe

Slow Cooker Firecracker Chicken

  • Prep15 minutes
  • Total15 minutes
  • Servings4

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds chicken diced into bite size pieces
  • ⅓ cup cornstarch
  • ⅓ cup oil
  • ½ cup hot wing sauce
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 4 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • Scallions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Coat your chicken pieces in cornstarch.
  2. Heat up the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  3. Brown the chicken quickly in the pan. We are not looking to cook the chicken through, just get a little color on each side.
  4. Place the browned chicken in the slow cooker.
  5. In a small mixing bowl combine the hot wing sauce, brown sugar, water and vinegar.
  6. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker and stir.
  7. Cook on low for 4 hours, stirring once or twice to make sure the sugars are not burning.
  8. Garnish with scallions and serve over white rice.
