- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ large onion, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped

Meanwhile, mix together chicken
broth, teriyaki sauce, and brown sugar in a bowl. Stir in onion, garlic, red
chile peppers, and black pepper.
Put browned tenderloins into a
slow cooker and cover with teriyaki sauce mixture. Cook on Low for about 4
hours, turning 2 to 3 times during the cooking time to ensure even doneness.
The internal temperature of the tenderloin should reach 180 degrees F .
Remove tenderloins from the slow
cooker and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Spoon liquid over slices when
serving, if desired.
