Instructions
Prepare the slow cooker:Lightly spray a 6-quart or larger slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray, or line it with a plastic slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.
Make the sauce:In a medium bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, Asian sweet chili sauce, ginger, garlic, dried minced onions, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Cook the chicken:Place the chicken breasts or thighs into the slow cooker and pour the prepared sauce over the top. Cover and cook:On low heat for 6 hoursOn high heat for 3 hoursOR until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Shred the chicken:Remove the cooked chicken to a cutting board and let it cool slightly before shredding with two forks.
Thicken the sauce:Dissolve 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water. Pour this slurry into the slow cooker, whisking well to combine with the sauce. Turn the slow cooker to high and let the sauce thicken for about 5–10 minutes.
Combine and serve:Add the shredded chicken back into the slow cooker, stirring to coat it thoroughly in the thickened sauce. Serve warm.
