Description
Slow Cooker Bacon Brown Sugar Garlic Chicken is a flavorful, fuss-free meal combining tender chicken, crispy bacon, a sweet and savory brown sugar glaze, and aromatic garlic.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 6 strips thick-cut bacon, chopped
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Lightly grease the slow cooker with cooking spray or a little oil to prevent sticking.
2. Layer the Ingredients: Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Sprinkle the chopped bacon, minced garlic, and black pepper over the top of the chicken.
3. Add the Sauce: Drizzle the soy sauce over the chicken and sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top.
4. Cook to Perfection: Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
5. Serve and Enjoy: Spoon the delicious sauce and bacon over the chicken when serving. Pair it with rice or your favorite veggies for a complete and satisfying meal.
Notes
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your desired sweetness level – if you prefer a less sweet dish, start with a quarter cup and gradually increase from there.
For a healthier option, consider using turkey bacon or reducing the amount of brown sugar.
