Creating Crockpot Teriyaki Chicken is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot.

3. Add Sauce to Chicken: Pour the sauce over the chicken, ensuring it’s well coated.
4. Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours until the chicken is cooked through and easily shreds with a fork.
