Ingredients

  • 2 lbs skinless, boneless chicken breasts - (cut into 6 fillets)

  • Cook on low for 6 hours.
  • Remove chicken from slow cooker and pour all the leftover sauce into a medium sized sauce pan, and set over medium high heat.
  • In a very small bowl, mix together the cornstarch with two tablespoons of water. Then, add that into the sauce.
