Honey-Garlic Slow Cooker Chicken Thigh Slider w/ Sugar Snap Peas and Carrots

Dinner Tonight: Honey-Garlic Slow Cooker Chicken Thigh Slider w/ Sugar Snap Peas and Carrots




Another cloudy and cool Spring Day here. It was in the 40's this morning with a cool breeze blowing.
I went out to get the Morning Papers and my neighbor was out getting his and he said he has the Spring Flu that's going around the area, a lot of people are down with it. I started my day off with one delicious Breakfast. I prepared a Egg Beater's Egg Whites Cheese Omelet, used Sargento Reduced Fat Shredded Sharp Cheddar for the filling. Then I also prepared some Eckrich Smoked Turkey breakfast Links, and these were really good and easy to prepare, with 2 slices of Klosterman Wheat Bread and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea! Really enjoyed this! Helped Mom with some more of her Spring Cleaning most of the afternoon. For dinner tonight, Leftovers! I prepared Honey-Garlic Slow Cooker Chicken Thigh Slider w/ Sugar Snap Peas and Carrots.
 



Tonight it all leftovers! No way was I going to let any of last night's dinner go to waste. The Honey-Garlic Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs are just the right size for a Slider. So I warmed up everything in the microwave. For the Slider Bun I used a Kroger Whole Wheat Mini Slider Bun. As good as last night's meal was, tonight's was just as good. Everything reheated great. I've left last night's original post that has the prep for everything when made fresh. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.



Came across this in an email from  http://allrecipes.com/ and couldn't wait to try it! So tonight it's
Honey-Garlic Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs. It's really an easy recipe to make. I'll need the following; 4 skinless, boneless Chicken Thighs, 1/2 cup Soy Sauce (reduced sodium), 1/2 cup Hunt's Ketchup, 1/3 cup Honey, 3 cloves Garlic (minced), and 1 teaspoon Dried Basil.



To prepare it as I said was very easy! To start Lay Chicken Thighs into the bottom of a 4-quart slow cooker. Whisk Soy Sauce, Ketchup, Honey, Garlic, and Basil together in a bowl; pour over the Chicken. Put the lid on the slow cooker and cook on Low for 6 hours. After 6 hours you have some incredible tasting Chicken Thighs! The combination of all 5 ingredients works perfectly with the Chicken. I especially like that hint of Honey flavor.That "Keeper Recipe" collection just keeps growing with this addition to it! Look no further for that next Chicken Recipe.



 Then I also had some Sugar Snap Peas and Carrots. I buy this from the Kroger Produce Department.
The Sugar Snap Peas and Carrots come in sealed plastic tray and all you have to do is prepare it the way you want. I pan fried mine in a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. In a medium size skillet just fry on medium heat until vegetables are fork tender.
