Easy and delicious, this crockpot teriyaki chicken is a family favorite! This recipe is gluten free, paleo friendly, and can be prepped in less than 10 minutes.
This crockpot teriyaki chicken is an easy dinner that you can through together in the morning on busy days.
I like to serve over zucchini noodles or with steamed broccoli and coconut rice. I like to double this recipe so I have leftovers for lunches during the week.

Delicious! Has become a family favorite. I add about 1/4 c. shredded carrots about 30 mins before done for more nutrients, and serve with sides of broccoli and rice (latter for my husband). Have passed this recipe on to two of my daughters.

Ever tried this in an instant pot? Wondering how to adapt it
I haven’t but I bet it would turn out just fine. I would start with it on high for 20 minutes.
Just curious if the instant pot worked? about to try it but wondering if I need to add more fluid?
I am disappointed. You did not include nutrients with this recipe…( sad face).
Hi Tiffany, If you know anything about coconut and other plant-based diuretics, could you please tell us? Thank you very much!
