Ingredients

• 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (About 4 pieces)
• 3 Tablespoons Cornstach
• ½ tsp black pepper
• 1 Tbsp canola oil
• ½ cup soy sauce
• 4 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
• 4 Tablespoons ketchup
• 3/4 tsp - 1 Tbsp. diced chipoltes
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
• 1 cup cashews

Instructions

1. Combine cornstarch and pepper in resealable food storage bag. Add chicken. Shake to coat with cornstarch mixture.
2. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken about 2 minutes on each side. Place chicken in slow cooker.
3. Combine soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, diced chipoltes, sugar, garlic, ginger, and cashews in small bowl; pour over chicken. (I like my cashews to be crunchy so I add them right before serving instead of with this sauce)
4. Cook on LOW for 3 to 4 hours.
5. Serve over rice. Makes 4-6 servings.
6. Garnish with green onions and the cashews if they weren't added earlier.
