Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks (with juice)
- 1.5 cups barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 piece red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 piece green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 4 cups cooked white rice (for serving)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crock pot.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, pineapple chunks (with juice), soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic powder. Mix well.
Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully coated.
Add the chopped red and green bell peppers on top of the chicken.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low for 5-6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
Once cooked, carefully shred the chicken using two forks, or leave the pieces whole if preferred.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water to make a slurry. Add this mixture to the sauce in the crock pot and stir well.
Continue cooking on high for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
Serve the Hawaiian chicken and sauce over cooked white rice. Enjoy!
