Chicken sandwiches with a twist! These Slow Cooker Teriyaki Chicken Sandwiches have shredded chicken cooked in an easy teriyaki inspired sauce, topped with coleslaw for the best weeknight sandwich.
Spray a 6 quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Place the chicken in the bottom, in as much of a single layer as possible.
In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, stir-fry sauce and seasoning mix. Pour this over the chicken in the slow cooker. Turn the chicken to coat.
Cover and cook on low until the chicken is tender, 4-6 hours.
When the chicken is done, remove the chicken from the slow cooker to a cutting board. Shred with 2 forks.
If you would like for the the sauce to be thicker, pour the liquid from the slow cooker into a pot. Place over high heat and bring it to a boil. Whisk together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water, then add this to the liquid. Continue to cook until the sauce has thickened. Pour the sauce back into the slow cooker.
Return the shredded chicken to the sauce in the slow cooker. Stir to coat.
In a large bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and celery seed. Add the coleslaw mix and the red onion and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve the chicken on the buns, topped with the coleslaw mix.
