Sweet Hawaiian Crock Pot Chicken Recipe

Right off.... for my Vegetarian and Vegan Readers - swap out Tofu or similar for 2 to 3 pounds of chicken.

Want an easy dinner?
Something you can throw together in 5 to 10 minutes?
Only Four Ingredients for the main course?

The only complaint I had about this recipe was that it was quite wet.  I will make it again, but I'll cut back on the Soy sauce.   It made up about 10-12 ounces of a sweet brown sauce that went well with the chicken, but it was too much even if you served it on top of rice.

So here you go:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup light soy sauce
  • 2 pounds chicken breast tenderloins.

Directions:

  • All ingredients into the crock pot.
  • Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
  • The chicken will fall apart on the fork when done.
  • Serve on a bed of rice, optional.

When I did make this, I used a mix of chicken breasts and thighs.   Personally I'm a thigh man.  Always have been. 

It's a mildly sweet recipe, so it should work well with any poultry, as well as being interesting with Pork.
