Crockpot Asian Sesame Chicken

I know we had a crockpot meal post just a couple of days ago, but it’s summer, and you need these dinner ideas, okay? This Crockpot Asian Sesame Chicken doesn’t need shredding, although you could if you wanted, and it’s nice and saucy to put on some brown rice and mixed vegetables.

I was actually really impressed with this meal because we all know that crockpot dinners don’t look the most appetizing all the time, but with this one, you cook the chicken by itself, drain the natural juices from the chicken, and then add the sauce until it’s hot. That’s why it’s so thick and glossy looking, instead of thin and less appetizing.

So anyway, this Crockpot Asian Sesame Chicken uses my favorite Kraft dressing, Light Asian Toasted Sesame, with a few extra ingredients. We loved this easy meal and already have it on the menu again! Enjoy!
