Slow Cooker Shredded Teriyaki Chicken

Serves: 6 | Prep Time: 5 mins | Cook Time: 3–4 hours (High) or 6–7 hours (Low)

Set it, forget it, and enjoy takeout-style flavor made 100% clean! Our Slow Cooker Shredded Teriyaki Chicken uses CMM Teriyaki Mix and the chicken's natural juices to create a rich, savory-sweet sauce with zero gluten, added water, or high-fructose corn syrup!

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or whole chicken thighs
• 4 tablespoons CMM Teriyaki Mix (divided: 3 tbsp for cooking + 1 tbsp for post-shredding)
• Non-stick cooking spray or olive oil (for greasing)

Optional Veggie Add-Ins (Add in the last 30–45 mins of cooking):

• • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 bell pepper (any color), sliced into thin strips
  • 1 cup sliced carrots or matchstick carrots
  • 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms or canned bamboo shoots / water chestnuts

Instructions:

1. Lightly grease the interior of your slow cooker with cooking spray or olive oil.
2. Place the chicken in an even layer at the bottom of the slow cooker and sprinkle 3 tablespoons of CMM Teriyaki Mix directly over the top.
3. Cover and cook on HIGH for 3–4 hours (or LOW for 6–7 hours) until the chicken is tender and pulls apart easily with a fork.
4. If adding optional veggies, stir them into the slow cooker during the last 30–45 minutes of cooking so they become tender-crisp.
5. Shred the chicken using two forks and mix thoroughly back into the natural cooking juices.
6. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of CMM Teriyaki Mix over the hot shredded chicken and toss well to coat in the glossy sauce.
7. Serve hot over white rice, brown rice, or cauliflower rice, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds!
