It did end up pretty sweet like Brooke said, but I enjoyed it! Joe, you don't know what you're talking about, man.
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- salt to taste
- 1 (15 ounce) can pineapple slices, juice reserved
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
Place chicken in slow cooker sprayed with non-stick spray and sprinkle with a little salt. Place pineapple slices over chicken. In a small bowl, combine pineapple juice, brown sugar, lemon juice, ginger and cornstarch and stgir until combined. Pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or hight for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Serve over rice.
That looks delicious and bonus that you can make it in the crockpot! I bet it would be good with a little terriyaki sauce added as well.
ReplyDeleteLooks great and sounds easy, I'll try it tonight for the kids and the in-laws. I'm assuming that you put the pineapple slices on top of the chicken in the crockpot....
ReplyDeleteJamie, that's what it says to do, second sentence. i kind of read over it myself. LOL i haven't tried this yet but it's very high on my list of meals to fix. thanks for sharing it, Lauren. MrsMo
DeleteI made this last night and everyone loved it my MIL just wanted more sauce
ReplyDeleteI made this, myself, and right before it was done, I placed it in a baking pan , sprinkled chopped green onions on top, and placed under the broiler until it got a beautiful toasty brown on top...
DeleteTime and temp?
DeleteCould you combine it all and freeze it in a freezer bag?
ReplyDeleteCould you combine everything and freeze it in a freezer bag?
ReplyDeleteSo, just double the sauce ingredients !!!!
ReplyDeleteSure looks awesome ! Im making it tonight for my deps
ReplyDeleteI am going to try this for sure. I wonder if you put a lttle more Pineapple juice in it if that would give you more sauce Angela? Just a thought

DeleteI am trying it tonight with rice
ReplyDeleteI live here in Hawaii. This recipe looks awesome. The flavor profile is legit. Using corn starch vs flour is consistent!
ReplyDeleteThere r some variants u could try. Fresh pineapple. Chunks vs slices. Fresh ginger slices instead of dried ground. Adding a cup of guava juice. Instead of salt add one tablespoon soy sauce. I loved the previous idea of adding chopped green onion at the end, that's local style. And lastly, some locals like heat, I'd suggest ground red pepper flakes at beginning to taste.
To the person who lives in Hawaii, your recipe sounds so GOOOOOOD!I can't wait to try it. Thanks for your suggestion much appreciated.
DeleteOkay, this is the version I am making tomorrow for dinner! Thanks for sharing your additions.
DeleteLooks yummy! I had a similar recipe years ago, but it wasn't for the slow cooker. Since I absolutely love my slow cooker, this is going on my "To-Try" list!
ReplyDeletewhat about using pork chops instead of chicken?
ReplyDeleteI had arecipe years ago that used large chunks of green bell pepper and sweet yellow onion too...it was sweet and sour but much like this..so you could probably add these too it when it is almost done so they don't get too soft..just some flavors...just a thought..
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious, seeing that I love peppers! Thank you
Deletegoing to try this tonight and add some veggies at the end
