Materials

  • 1 whole chicken 4-5 pounds fully defrosted
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients to a big ziplock bag or in a large dish and marinate overnight (or a minimum of 1 hour).
  • Using Heavy Duty Foil, cut two 18-inch pieces.
  • Roll each piece of foil the long way, loosely, to make the tube as long as possible, then twist it like an oven heating coil, or a flattened S.
  • Place the chicken on top of the foil, breast side down, and pour any remaining marinade over it.
  • Cook on low for six hours.
  • Remove the chicken from the slow cooker gently.
  • Transfer the residual liquid to a saucepan.
  • Mix cornstarch and water until thoroughly blended, then pour into a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring often, until the glaze thickens.
  • Pour the glaze over the chicken and serve.
