Crockpot Chinese Sweet & Sour Chicken

Serves 4-6 (really 4 because its so yummy!)
3-4 lbs of chicken (whole or pieces)
1/3 c soy sauce
1/3 c packed light brown sugar
1/4 c water
1/4 c apple juice or sherry (I use any sweet juice on hand)
3 T catsup
1/2 t red pepper flakes (optional)
2 green onions, trimmed and halved (I just chop and toss in)
1 clove garlic, pressed
2 T cornstarch + 1 T cold water
2 T sesame seeds (toasted)

Wash and dry chicken.  Remove giblets and neck (if using a whole chicken) and cut off excess fat.  Put in cooker, breast side up (if whole).  Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, water, sherry, catsup, red pepper flakes, green onions, garlic in small bowl and pour over chicken.  Cover and cook on HIGH for 3.5 - 4.5 hours until temp on an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 180.  (I just cook it until it's falling off the bones)

Transfer chicken to platter and mix cornstartch with water and stir into the remaining sauce.  Stir constantly while cooking still on high, and it will thicken.  Spoon over chicken and sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
