    Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken with Peppers

    Published: Sep 13, 2017 · Modified: Jul 21, 2021 by Christina Dennis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · 11 Comments

    School has begun, dance class has started, work's in full swing, so that means... it's slow cooker season! I enjoy using a slow cooker to prep suppers in Fall and Winter to save time, but still cook something tasty and nutritious. Today, I'm sharing with you my ultimate favourite slow cooker recipe: honey garlic chicken with peppers. It's incredibly flavourful, and it's so simple to prepare. Simply set it up after lunch, and you'll be able to enjoy it over rice at suppertime. Want even more supper inspo? Make sure to scroll down to the end of this post for more slow cooker recipes from my Canadian blogging friends.

    Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken with Peppers Recipe

    The recipe that inspired my own is this Crock Pot Honey Sesame Chicken recipe from The Comfort Kitchen. I found it on Pinterest 2 or 3 years ago, and when I first tried it I KNEW I had to add it to our dinner repertoire. I find that slow cooker meals can often taste bland and have a funny texture, but this one is SO flavourful and tender - it's delicious!

    Over the years, I've modified this recipe to make it even easier. I've also added some fresh, chopped red pepper to the mix for a few extra nutrients in the dish. I serve it over Minute Rice, and the kids and hubby always gobble it up. It also makes great leftovers for the next day's lunch!

    Here's how to make this delicious Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken with Peppers:
