Equipment

Ingredients

8 Chicken thighs boneless and skinless (I only used 5, because mine were as big as chicken breasts)
3 Tbsp flour
⅓ cup orange marmalade
⅓ cup barbecue sauce
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger root

Instructions

Toss chicken with flour in slow cooker. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and pour over the chicken. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or 3-4 on high.
Thirty minutes before it's done, remove the cover and turn the crock pot on high for 30 minutes. This will help thicken the sauce. If after 30 min, the sauce isn't thick enough, you can mix some cornstarch and water together and add it to the sauce.
Serve over cooked rice. You can also top with sesame seeds or green onions for garnish.
