I put too much salt on the chicken?

Question

I'm using my slow cooker to make chicken with honey sauce.  The recipe said to put honey, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic, and vegetable oil in the cooker, then season chicken breasts with salt & pepper and put into the cooker.  The salt came out faster than I thought it would, so there was a lot of salt on the chicken.  I brushed a bit off, but I'm afraid it's still too much.  I can't afford to go buy new chicken.  What can I add to lessen the salt? I don't want to water down the sauce.  What can I do?

It's probably fine when you're talking about chicken. No matter how much salt I season them with pre-cooking it never tastes like too much when it's done.

Christine, if it hasn't started cooking, you can always rinse the salt off, then pat the chicken dry and return it to your slow cooker.

Put some chunks of potatoes in with the chicken.

If you are using soy always let everthing to cook and then taste test fo salt as the soy is high in salt and will normally be enough

I would start over by remaking the sauce and rinsing off the chicken.
