Slow cooker sesame-orange chicken. This slow cooker sesame-orange chicken dinner is easy to make and perfect for a weeknight dinner.

What are the benefits of using a slow cooker in cooking?

Slow cookers are a great way to cook healthy meals. They allow you to cook food for a long time and with less energy than other cooking methods. This is because the slow cooker transfers heat from the bottom of the pot to the top, which means that it doesnโ€™t need much energy to cook your food. It also cooks your food evenly and slowly, which is good for retaining nutrients in your meal.

In addition, slow cookers are a great way to save money on groceries because they allow you to buy cheaper cuts of meat that would otherwise be too tough or dry if cooked in other ways.

Is the sesame-orange chicken just orange or does it have any sesame taste?

The sesame-orange chicken is a dish that has both orange and sesame flavors. The orange flavor comes from the sauce made from orange juice. The sesame flavor comes from the sesame oil and sesame seeds.
