Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into cubes
Juice and zest of 2 oranges
2 tablespoons brown sugar (I used coconut sugar to keep the recipe paleo)
2 tablespoons honey
¼ cup rice vinegar (or cider vinegar)
¼ cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
1 shallot (or small onion), finely chopped
2 garlic cloves minced
¼ teaspoon freshly grated ginger
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 tablespoons cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)
Directions:
Directions:
1) Lightly grease the insert of your crockpot.
2) In a bowl combine orange juice, orange zest, sugar, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, shallot, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes (if using), and black pepper.
3) Pour half of the sauce into the crock-pot, place chicken breasts, and then pour the rest of the sauce over the chicken.
4) Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 5 to 6 hours.
5) When done, transfer chicken into a bowl. Set aside.
In a small bowl whisk cornstarch with 4 tablespoons of cold water until smooth. Set aside.
6) Pour the sauce from the crock-pot into a saucepan and add cornstarch slurry. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened and reduced by half. This should take about 8 to 10 minutes.
7) Add the chicken and the sauce back to the crock-pot and give a good stir to coat.
Serve warm sprinkled with sesame seeds and chopped green scallions over white rice (or cauliflower rice).
