Cornstarch Mixture

Instructions
- Place honey, soy sauce, ketchup and garlic in the slow cooker. Whisk or mix until smooth. Place the chicken thighs in the slow cooker. Coat the chicken with a thick layer of sauce. The chicken skin should be face up.
- Cover with a lid and cook on low for 4-5 hours. Remove the chicken, place on a plate/bowl and cover.
- In a small bowl: mix cornstarch and cold water together. Pour the mixture into the cooker. Switch the cook temperature to high. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until thickened to your preference. Alternate method: transfer the sauce to a pan and cook over a stovetop on medium-high for 5-10 minutes or until it thickens.
