1. To assemble this Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken and Veggies, start by placing the potatoes, carrots, and onion in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker. Season the vegetables with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Next, arrange the chicken breasts or thighs on top of the veggie layer.

2. Now, pour the honey garlic sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring everything is well coated. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours. Avoid lifting the lid during cooking to maintain the heat and moisture in the slow cooker, which helps the chicken and veggies cook to tender perfection.

3. About 20 to 30 minutes before serving, add the broccoli florets and green beans on top of the chicken and vegetables without stirring. This allows the broccoli and green beans to cook until they’re tender-crisp, retaining their vibrant color and fresh flavor.

4. To finish the dish, transfer the cooking liquid from the slow cooker to a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 to 3 minutes. Then, pour the thickened honey garlic sauce back over the chicken and veggies, ensuring everything is well coated and ready to serve.
