Before you begin...
This recipe takes around 5-10 min to prep, so get your slow cooker and all your ingredients ready, then wash your fruit and veg
Take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Boil half a kettle
Turn on your slow cooker to high
Add your diced chicken thigh, toasted sesame oil, hoisin sauce, garlic & ginger paste, chicken stock mix and 2 tsp [3 tsp] [4 tsp] flour to the dish and give everything a good mix up
Add your gluten free soy sauce, Chinese rice wine, 2 tsp [3 tsp] [4 tsp] sugar and 80ml [105ml] [120ml] boiled water and cook for an initial 2 hours
Meanwhile, deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and cut into bite-size pieces
Wash your spinach
After an initial 2 hours, add the chopped pepper with a pinch of salt to the dish and cook for a final hour – this is your slow cooker sesame hoisin chicken
When the sesame hoisin chicken is almost ready, squeeze your pouch[es] of cooked white long grain rice to separate the grains
Tear the top corner of the pouch[es] (just a little!) and microwave for 2 min or until piping hot
Tip: If you're cooking two pouches, pop them in together but increase the microwave cook time accordingly
When the hoisin chicken is ready (no pink meat!) , stir through your spinach until wilted
