Description
A sweet and tangy slow-cooked chicken dish that’s easy for weeknight dinners and potlucks.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooked rice (for serving)
- Green onions (for garnish)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the crock pot.
- In a separate bowl, mix together pineapple chunks, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, garlic powder, ginger powder, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken in the crock pot.
- Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Shred the chicken with two forks and stir it into the sauce.
- Serve over cooked rice and garnish with chopped green onions.
Notes
Put the chicken flat so it cooks evenly. Stirring after shredding helps the meat soak the sauce. If the sauce seems thin, remove the lid for 10-15 minutes at the end to reduce it.
