This recipe probably isn’t authentic Chinese cooking, or authentic anything. I just made it up on the spur of the moment and it tasted surprisingly good. It’s easy to make and I’ve been making more use of my slow cooker now the Winter nights are announcing their arrival at 4pm. It’s cheap and easy to make and goes well with rice or noodles for an effortless dinner.
Ingredients
Pack of chicken legs/drumsticks/thighs
1/2 cup of soy sauce
1/4 cup of sweet chilli sauce
1 tsp rice vinegar
2 cloves of garlic
1/2 cup of chicken stock
Scattering of sesame seeds
Method
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, sweet chilli sauce, rice vinegar, crushed garlic, chicken stock and sesame seeds. Mix well. Add the raw chicken legs and cover completely with the sauce. Lay in slow cooker and pour remaining sauce from the bowl over the top. Cook on high for 5 hours/low for 8 hours.
