Fake Out Take Out - Slow Cooker Sesame Chicken
151
A love of mine is Chinese take out! I mean who doesn't love Chinese take out?? hello? I swear to you this tasted just like something we'd order in on a Friday night from the place down the street. So yummy. And the best part (okay the whole thing is the best part) is that even though it's in a slow cooker it doesn't get that weird mushy quality to the chicken because I have used thighs instead of breasts!

6 boneless skinless thighs
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, diced
1 T freshly grated ginger

1/4 C ketchup
1/2 C soy sauce
2 T olive oil
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, 1/2 tsp if you like it SPICY.
4 tsp cornstarch
1/3 C water
1 T sesame seeds
2 Cups cooked rice.
