Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken

I found this on pinterest and adapted if from lakelurecottagekitchen. It sounded like the perfect meal to try out on the day I fed the missionaries. This meal was a complete success. Both the missionaries and my family loved it.

12 boneless chicken tender loins.(about a 3 pound bag)
3/4 cup sugar

1/3 apple cider vinegar
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

4 1/2 teaspoons water

1. Place chicken in a 4 quart slow cooker.
2. In a bow, combine the sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger garlic and pepper.
3. Pour over chicken.
4. Cover and cook on low 4-5 hours or until chicken is tender.
5. Remove chicken to a serving platter.
6. Keep warm.
7. Place liquid in a sauce pan and bring to a boil.
8. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth.
9. Gradually stir into liquid and stir until sauce is thickened.
