Recipe Notes
This recipe is very tasty as is. But if you prefer a creamier, thicker sauce do this...
30 minutes before serving, turn the slow cooker to high (and leave the lid on for now).
Mix 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 1/4 cup water. Stir until very well combined.
Pour the cornstarch slurry into the liquid and stir well.
Cover the crockpot again and give the sauce time to thicken.
Note: You might want add a bit of garlic powder, salt and pepper.
