Slow Cooked Asian Honey Chicken is one of our family's go-to dinners.
It's perfect to prep in the morning before a busy day starts and enjoy later once it's time for dinner. It has a simple prep, just toss all the ingredients into your crockpot, and go! We love using our Orange Blossom Honey In this recipe as it adds just that little extra flair.
