1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup cashews

Directions:

Place chicken in a slow cooker. Combine soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, sugar, garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes in small bowl; pour over chicken. Cook on LOW for 3 to 4 hours. Add cashews and stir. Serve over rice.

If you want like sauce and want to have some to pour over the chicken and the rice, double the sauce ingredients.
