Cooking instruction summary:
Instructions Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large saut pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil, and once hot, carefully add the chicken skin side down. Saut until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook 2 more minutes. Transfer the chicken to the slow cooker. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, hot water, ginger, and garlic.; add to the slow cooker. Cover and cook the chicken skin side down on high for 3 to 4 hours, or 5 to 6 hours on low. If possible, flip the chicken halfway through cooking so the sauce infuses the surface of both sides. If desired, transfer chicken to a foil-lined sheet pan skin side up and broil 10 inches from the top of the oven until skin is crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes. Glaze the chicken with the sauce; garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro.
