- 4 chicken thighs
- ½ cup Teriyaki Glaze (I like Kikkoman Teriyaki Baste and Glaze)
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1/2 cup Quinoa
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- Pinch of crushed dried red pepper flakes
- 1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, chopped
- ¼ cup chopped green onions
- 8 large romaine lettuce leaves, washed and patted dry
Place the chicken and Teriyaki sauce in a slow cooker. Stir to coat the chicken. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours. Shred the chicken with 2 forks while still in the pot and mix well with the sauce. Add the chestnuts and mix well. Turn the slow cooker to warm. In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Reduce heat. Stir in Quinoa, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes, cover and simmer for about 15- 20 minutes. Add Quinoa to chicken mixture and stir well. Place a heaping spoonful on lettuce leaf and fold like a taco to eat.
