A hands-off weeknight dinner featuring tender chicken and mixed vegetables in a sweet and savory honey garlic sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 to 2 pounds)
  • 1 cup honey (reduce to 1/2 cup for less sweet)
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce (use low-sodium for healthier option)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups carrots, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooked rice or quinoa (for serving)

Instructions

  1. In a slow cooker, combine honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Pour half the sauce over the chicken.
  2. Add the chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper, then pour the remaining sauce over the top.
  3. Cook on low for 4-6 hours, checking for an internal temperature of 165°F.
  4. About 30 minutes before serving, add broccoli and carrots to the slow cooker, stirring gently.
  5. Serve over cooked rice or quinoa, spooning extra sauce over the top.

Notes

For a less sweet option, reduce honey or substitute with maple syrup. Ensure vegetables are added late to maintain texture.
