Hawaiian Chicky for the Crockpot

"This recipe is for a Crockpot. It's sweet and smokey, inexpensive and really easy! I keep lots of the ingrediants in the house, b/c in a pinch, it works great! My husband LOVES this recipe and he can be hard to please b/c he gets really sick of chicken. I load this up in the am before I leave for work and come home at 6 to a house smelling amazing!!! I hope you try this one...And if you cook extra chicken, it tastes amazing on a nice salad for the lunch the next day!"

ingredients

  • 3 chicken breasts (I get the flash frozen ones so I can only cook what I need)
  • 1 cup diced pineapple (for a more thick sauce, drain the fruit, but I usually use the juice becauce it really adds a sweet )
  • 2 cups frozen sliced red and green peppers (Again, I get the frozen bags and use only the amount needed BUT fresh is fine too)
  • 12 cup frozen chopped onion, however fresh is fine
  • 2 cups of smokey style honey barbecue sauce
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 pinch salt and pepper
  • 1 pinch of minced garlic

directions

  • Put all the ingredients in the crockpot and set on either low for 8 hours or on high for about 4 or 5 hours-Or as long as it takes for the chicken to be totally cooked. Once the chicken is cooked, serve over a bed of brown rice, with the sauce, veggies and fruit along side!

  1. Unfortunately turned out inedible due to dryness, cooked on a low setting, covered, for about 8 or so hours. Used plenty of BBQ sauce, honey, pineapple & juice etc. Perhaps the chicken breasts were too small - I recommend you use the largest you can find and keep the cooking time as short as possible.
     
  2. I threw this in the crock pot before I left the house today and when I got home--the whole house smelled wonderful! I cooked it for about 4 hours on high then turned down to low for about another hour and a half. The chicken absorbs the sauce and flavors really well. I think next time I will use more pineapple.
     
  3. This recipe I had high expectations, but when I made it I found it to be just okay. The chicken was dried out, while cooking it under the time suggested here on a low setting and the sauce was too bbq-y so i added more and more pineapple juice just to balance out the flavor. added portabella mushrooms and the end result..still just okay. not something I'll try again with my picky dad.
     
  4. Our family loved this! And I have picky teens in the house! We made it exactly as the recipe says and served it with brown rice and sauteed broccoli on the side. We will definitely make this one again. So easy when there is no time to make dinner.
     
  5. Tastes wonderful and very easy to make. One of our new go-tos.
