Love Chicken Teriyaki but feel like it takes too long to make? Well, not any more! With this crockpot recipe, you can set it and go . . . and you’re always sure to have a delicious meal when you get home!

In our house, we’re trying to get a few more vegetables into our regular diets.  We get into a rut with little to no veggies and our bodies start demanding it.  This recipe calls for carrots and broccoli florets.  If you’re a fan, you can add even more to the slow cooker for more vegetable flavor!  To me, the more broccoli in it, the better the dish is.  And, we need all of the vegetables we can get!

How Do You Make Chicken Teriyaki in the Slow Cooker?

  • Place chicken & baby carrots in bottom of slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, teriyaki sauce, brown sugar and garlic. Pour over chicken.

  • Serve by placing cooked fried rice in individual bowls. Top with chicken, extra sauce from slow cooker and soy sauce (optional).

What Can I use as a Substitute for Teriyaki Sauce?

You can substitute, by making your own sauce.  Here’s a common sauce that you can make:

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce.
  • 1/4 cup water.
  • 2 tablespoons sweet rice wine.
  • 1 tablespoon, plus 2 teaspoons brown sugar.
  • 1/4 cup sugar.
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic.
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced ginger

Combine ingredients in a saucepan on medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.

What is a Good Side for Teriyaki Chicken?

I think that serving it over Fried Rice makes it a perfect meal, but if you are looking for additional sides, you could try one of the following:

  • Fried Rice
  • Vegetable Stir Fry
  • Green Beans
  • Broccoli with cheese
  • Carrots with salt and butter
  • Salad
  • Roasted asparagus in olive oil with a little salt.
  • Coconut Rice
  • and more…

The question is what would you pair with Teriyaki Chicken?  Leave me a comment and tell me, I’d love to hear it.

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
