The Honey Chicken is the only version of this I've tried, only because it's usually all I have on hand.
But it's absolutely delicious... and I'm told the Sticky Chicky is to die for. You can also do this with a whole chicken, and it doesn't need to thaw necessarily - just stick a few potatoes in with it to absorb the little bit of extra liquid. Plus the marinade cooks into a thin sauce. We usually throw 5 or 6 peeled, cut carrots in during the last half-hour - change the veggies according to your taste. Enjoy!
DUMP CRANBERRY CHICKEN
2 Tablespoons Melted Butter
1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
1/2 cup Cranberry Sauce
1/4 cup Orange Juice
1/8 Teaspoon Cinnamon
4 – 8 pieces chicken (bone-in ok)
Mix everything in a 1-gallon freezer bag with chicken and marinate overnight, or freeze. To cook the chicken, thaw completely in the fridge, dump into crockpot, and cook on low until done, about 8 – 10 hours. Frozen chicken & marinade will keep well in the freezer for future use.
