Oriental Chicken Ginger

The holidays are over and you want to start eating more healthy but you are hungry! This faces all of us in January.  Let's feast healthfully! Your waistline and your heart will thank you!

6 uncooked chicken breast halves, cut-up
1 cup carrotts, diced

1./2 cup minced onion
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 Tbsp. ground ginger or 1/4 cup grated gingerroot
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp. sesame oil
2 cups broccoli florets
1 cup cauliflower florets




Combine all ingredients except broccoli and cauliflower in slow cooker.  Cover and cook on low 3-5 hours. Stir in broccoli and cauliflower and cook an additional hour.  Serve over brown rice. Note:  If you use Gluten Free soy sauce, this would be a GF recipe!

TUPPS TIDBITS: You could use a variety of vegetables for this recipe and add them the last hour of cooking.

It's probably happened to you before; you buy all the ingredients for a new recipe and follow the instructions exactly, but what you end up with is...just not right. It is possible you made a mistake in the cooking,  but sometimes you are just dealing with a bad recipe. But that is why we are trying them, right? We were excited for our first 2015 recipe, but we start off the New Year with NOT A KEEPER!
