could i cook this chicken on high for a shorter amount of time?
Chicken can be a tricky one to cook. Mostly because it can dry out in the slow cooker quickly.
You could cook it on high for a shorter amount of time (about 3-4 hours with frozen chicken breasts) but we recommend cooking it on low, for a longer amount of time, so the juices don’t cook out, and the chicken is more tender and juicy.
You could always cook it higher, then add a little bit of your own teriyaki sauce after cooking, to help with the dryness, but we recommend cooking it on low for longer.
what could i serve with this recipe?
Side dishes are the most tricky part of dinner to me. I am always exhausted after making the main dish, and now they want side dishes? However, we have a few simple dishes that would pair perfectly with this Korean dish.
Here are a few we recommend:
- Cauliflower Fried Rice (you could replace this with the rice, or serve it as a side)
- Baked Avocado Egg Rolls
- Baked Veggie Egg Rolls
- Ramen Noodle Oriental Salad
- Baked Crab Ragoons
- Spaghetti Squash Chow Mein
- 5 Cup Creamy Fruit Salad
- Island Fruit Salad
- Grilled Caramelized Brown Sugar Pineapple

Thanks for the ideas!! These are so great for the budget friendly mom or busy mom!
For you slow cooker experts, could you do the same with boneless skinless chicken breasts and ones that weren’t frozen?
Is it possible to cook this on high for a lesser amount of time? I wanted to make this tonight but completely forgot until now, meaning we would have to wait until later to eat. Would love some advice, thanks!
You can cook it on high for 3-4 hours, but in my experience, I don’t feel like the chicken is as tender and moist when it do it on high. However, it still works and the flavor is great! 🙂
I made this a couple nights ago and we all loved it! I really appreciated how fast and easy it was to get started, and I enjoyed smelling it all day. When my sons got home from school, they walked in the door, stopped in their tracks and asked “What smells so good?!” One of my sons is a very choosy eater, and he devoured his chicken! My other son likes a lot of foods, but generally doesn’t like the shredded consistency of meat from a slow cooker. He also ate all of his chicken! The chicken could’ve been shredded, but it held together enough that I could cut it into bite size pieces too. This is definitely a recipe I’ll add to my rotation! I used about 8-10 frozen thighs, because that’s what I had and they turned out tender and absolutely delicious!
Sure! If your chicken breasts are thawed, reduce your cooking time. You could probably get away with 4 hours on low. Be sure to check it and make sure it’s cooked through.
