Yummy Crock-Pot Chicken

Terisha's Chicken

4 to 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 C. soy sauce (use 1/2 water & 1/2 soy sauce if not less-sodium)
1 C. sugar
1 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 C. chopped onion (can use minced or onion powder)

Place chicken in crock-pot. In a saucepan, combine soy sauce, sugar, garlic salt, and onion. Bring to a boil then pour sauce over chicken in crock-pot. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or on high 3-4 hours. Makes 4-6 servings.

I'm all about crock-pot recipes and I love this one! I probably make it once a week! ... it is so easy and very tasty. It is especially yummy served over mashed potatoes! (We like mashed red potatoes with the peels left on.)
