Crockpot Orange Chicken Stirfry

Ingredients:
2 bags of frozen stir fry veggies ( I like Meijer's. Broccoli, carrots, celery, water chestnuts, red peppers, onions, & mushrooms ) approximately 5 cups
1 bag frozen chicken breasts ( again Meijer has precut chunks to save you time ) approximately 36oz
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tbsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp orange zest
2 tbsp. diced green onions
1 tsp grated ginger

Directions:
In crockpot mix chicken with everything listed below it on low for 6 hours. Remove chicken from sauce. Pour sauce in wok, and add in frozen stir fry veggies. Toss until well cooked. Add chicken back in. Add cornstarch if necessary to thicken sauce ( I never do this because I think that the veggies soak in the sauce ). Serve over rice.
