Pour bottled sweet chili sauce and these 4 ingredients over chicken breasts into a slow cooker for a sticky-sweet dinner you’ll keep coming back to

Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a single layer in the bottom of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker.

In a small bowl, stir together the bottled sweet chili sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, honey, and minced garlic until well combined.

Pour the sweet chili sauce mixture evenly over the raw chicken breasts in the slow cooker, making sure all the chicken is coated in the sticky-sweet sauce.

Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and very tender (it should reach an internal temperature of at least 165°F).

Once cooked, use two forks to gently shred or slice the chicken right in the slow cooker, stirring it into the sauce so every piece is coated.

Taste the sauce and adjust if needed, adding a bit more honey for extra sweetness or a splash of soy sauce for more saltiness. Serve the sweet chili chicken hot with plenty of sauce spooned over each portion.
