Of course, you'll need some boneless skinless chicken breast I am going to cut off all the fat and stuff before it goes into the crock pot. You'll also need chicken broth cornstarch Hoisin sauce Soy sauce. I'm just subbing coconut aminos a couple tablespoons of water Ginger you can either use fresh or dry and then honey or agave So I'm gonna be using this nature's hollow honey substitute. I buy this off of the net triton website This honey is amazing. You can have a tablespoon for one smart point It's about a quarter of the amount of smart points as regular honey and it tastes just as delicious It is made with xylitol. So make sure you keep it away from any pets But again, you can buy this off of the net triton website Same place. I buy my fiber gourmet pasta my thinnables so many Fantastic ww options on that website. There is a link down in the description box Just click the link. It'll take you directly to net triton site So we are gonna be using the nature's hollow honey substitute So let's get started putting together in our crock pot or hoisin chicken First thing we're going to do is put together our sauce for our chicken So I have one-third cup of my light soy sauce or coconut aminos whatever it is that you're using We also have one-third cup of our hoisin sauce. I Love hoisin. It's one of my favorite sauces and honestly I thought it was more point-heavy than it is So I was happy to know that it isn't as point-heavy as I originally thought and then we also have one-third cup of chicken broth And I'm just gonna kind of mix this as I go We're also going to put in two tablespoons of our sugar-free honey and then lastly we're gonna add some ginger and that's what's gonna give it that really authentic kind of Flare of the ginger that spiciness yum and the recipe wants two Teaspoons of ginger, so I'm just gonna go ahead and add some in and we're gonna give this a stir And now our sauce is ready to go So let's pull out our crock pot and get this going So I went ahead and added a liner to my crock pot and the next step is we are actually going to take our Breasts of chicken and we are going to put them into the bottom of our crock pot And I did trim these of all that icky fat that was on there and these are some high quality chicken breasts I just don't understand. Maybe it's just the way that it is But I like to remove all of the visible fat. It just kind of keeps it a little bit more lean So I went ahead and I added my chicken breasts and then we are simply going to pour our delicious sauce Right over the top of our chicken and we are going to cook this on High now you have the option to cook this on high or low whatever your preference is so I have everything ready I'm gonna go ahead and cook mine on low for four hours You can also cook it on high for one and a half hours, whatever your preference is So I am just going to pop on my lid. Let's get this on low and I'll be back in about four hours The hoisin chicken is done. It's been about five hours on low in the crock pot so I'm gonna take my tongs here and I'm going to remove the chicken and just put it here on a paper plate because I want to Make the sauce left here in the crock pot into a thicker poison sauce And then we'll re add in our chicken and shred it in with the sauce you guys this smells I wish you could smell how good this smells. So I have my chicken here Let me grab our cornstarch and water mixture and let's make this into a thicker sauce So in my bowl here I mixed together my one tablespoon of cornstarch and a couple tablespoons of water and Made a slurry and we are just while this is still nice and hot Going to mix that in here with the liquid left in our crock pot until it thickens And then we'll re add in our chicken get it shredded and then we're ready to make rice because it was so easy and Smells so good. My sauce is thickened up quite a lot So I'm actually gonna go ahead and add back in my pieces of chicken And I'm going to use a fork here and shred those up and get them nice and mixed in with the sauce Whatever extra sauce there is is a good thing because we'll be able to pour that over our rice But look at how tender this chicken is it just falls Apart so I'm going to get this nice and shredded and I'll show you what it looks like Once the chicken and the sauce is mixed together and here is our shredded chicken. I just have to tell you I tried this look at this Yeah, you guys this is so Incredibly delicious It has the sweetness from the hoisin sauce with that little bit of salt kick from the Amino sort of soy sauce Delicious so I'm just going to go ahead and set this aside until I make some rice And I'll be back to show you exactly what I'm having for dinner I'll give you the smart points for the hoisin chicken and then I'll give you the smart points for my whole dinner including the rice All right here is my completed dinner. I am so excited about this look at all of this This is an absolutely huge dinner plate and it is full so I have one serving of peas I'm just going to add a little bit of spray butter salt and pepper to that Excuse me. I'm going to add a little bit of spray butter salt and pepper to that and then look at this I have half of a cup of my jasmine rice and I have one fourth So that's a lot of the hoisin chicken one fourth of the chicken It is three smart points for the rice and you guys the chicken is only two smart points This entire serving is two smart points.
