Sweet and Sour Chicken

Sweet and Sour Chicken

Cook 4 chicken breasts in a crock pot. 1 hour before done add:

2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp corn starch
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup of apple juice
1 tsp oil
1 garlic minced
1 cup of mandarin oranges

The sauce will thicken and then you can serve over rice. I will sometimes double the sauce to make more for the rice or add more chicken. Works well with chicken tenders too.
