My little boy has started to really like chicken, which makes me the happiest mom in the world. We eat chicken a lot, and I really love chicken, especially chicken wings.
A few weeks ago when I had a party, someone brought over some baked chicken wings and little G ate like six of them. He ate all the chicken skin (his favorite) and the meat, and spat out the bones in one nice whole piece.
I was so impressed by his newly acquired skills, meaning his ability to eat bone-in chicken just like a grown-up now. I guess he has mastered his fine motor skills in the eating department!!

Since he likes wings now, I thought about making him an easy dinner with chicken wings.
He loves the combination of honey (he always asks for plain honey in a bowl and he would dip his fingers and “eat” the honey dry!), soy sauce, sesame seeds and thus I decided to make him this easy peasy slow cooker honey sesame chicken wings.
I got myself some organic jidori wings (jidori means free range in Japanese). The jidori wings are small or shall I say regular-sized, a clear sign that they are not hormone fed chicken.
The prep took 10 minutes of my time. I put all the ingredients into the slow cooker and set the heat level to high.
Three and a half hours later, I had the most amazing, fall-off-the-bone and absolutely delicious honey sesame chicken wings.
My boy devoured the wings during dinner. I packed the leftover for his lunch box at school. This is an amazin recipe for busy moms who don’t have a lot of time to cook. Bon appetit!

One more comment after reading others. Keep in mind that wings (fat/liquid) content are not consistent at all and adjusting your fluid and/or cornstarch is to be expected. Also, not all slow cooker (crockpots) heat the same at the same setting(s) so, cooking time may certainly vary. We love this recipe. Thank You!!!

Hi, my chicken wings have turned very tender before the 3.5 hours are up. So is it ok to turn off? Thanks
Rasa Malaysia
Yes.

I know you mentioned we can use any chicken, but do you think thighs or breasts would be appropriate since they’re so large? Maybe cut the thighs in half to compensate?
Rasa Malaysia
Yes, you can cut thighs into halves!!

I put it in the slow cooker this afternoonat 4pm and by 730pm, it was perfect except for more liquid than in the recipe. Put another half tablespoon of cornflour in a bit of warm water into the slow cooker to thicken the sauce. Much better. Next time I’ll dry the chicken pieces more. It’s very tender and delicious though. Om nom nom..good reviews from the clan.
