Slow cooker honey sesame ginger chicken

Platter of finished slow cooker honey sesame ginger chicken.

This tender chicken is sweet, savory, and has a touch of warmth from ginger and the best part is it cooks up easily in the slow cooker until it is falling apart. This is a family friendly dish that is both tasty to eat and easy to make.

Today I'm celebrating this classic food combination with some of my blogging friends (check out all the recipes at the bottom of this post). 

My readers know I love making pies, and I've been meaning to add hand pie recipes to my blog for some time, now. This was the perfect way to do so! 

These hand pies are so fun - they are a great snack or dessert (and I'll fully admit that I've eaten one for a quick breakfast on the go as well). You can use any jelly or jam flavor(s) you want and you can use creamy or chunky peanut butter. 

The peanut butter in these is a thicker texture from the cream cheese - sort of like the filling of a peanut butter cup. I did not add any sugar to my pie crust or to my peanut butter, but if you want a slightly sweeter pie, you may add some or even a sprinkle of coarse sugar on top. 

This recipe will make approximately 10 hand pies.
