Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb chicken breast About 4, 6 oz. pieces (chicken thighs will work)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano Adds an aromatic flavor
  • 1 tsp paprika For a subtle smoky depth
  • ¼ tsp onion powder Enhances the overall taste profile
  • ½ tsp pepper Provides a gentle heat
  • ½ tsp salt Essential for flavor enhancement
  • ¼ c honey Offers sweetness that balances the mustard's tanginess
  • ¼ c dijon mustard The star ingredient for that signature flavor
  • 2 Tbsp butter Melted, adds richness to the sauce
  • 2-3 cloves garlic Minced for robust flavor
  • ¼ c heavy cream To create a luscious sauce texture
  • 2 Tbsp corn starch Optional for thickening the sauce
  • 4 Tbsp cold water Optional for thickening the sauce

Method
 

  1. Pat your chicken dry with a paper towel and sprinkle the salt, pepper, oregano, onion powder, and paprika over the top, covering the chicken evenly.
  2. Whisk together honey, dijon mustard, minced garlic, and melted butter until smooth. Pour this flavorful mixture over the seasoned chicken.
  3. Close the lid and cook on LOW heat for about 3 hours or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F; checking at around 2 hours is recommended.
  4. Once cooked, pull apart the chicken into large chunks or shred it completely as per your preference. About 30 minutes before serving, add heavy cream and stir into the sauce.
  5. If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk together cold water and cornstarch until smooth; stir this mixture into the sauce and allow it to heat on warm or low setting until thickened.
  6. Once you've reached your desired sauce thickness, serve your delicious Crockpot Honey Mustard Chicken hot over rice, with vegetables, or however you like!
