Very flavorful chicken, that I call Hawaiian Chicken. This has been one of my regular chicken recipes since I saw Dave's mom make it on TV. I make it in the crock-pot using 6 chicken thighs. Season chicken with S&P, brown in a skillet, place in crock pot. Saute onions and garlic, put in with chicken. Mix remaining ingredients ( I add 2 tsp. of apple cider vinegar to get more of a sweet and sour flavor) and pour over the chicken. Cook on low 8 hours. Serve with Basmati rice and saute Swiss chard.
