About the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 can pineapple chunks in 100% juice, undrained

  • 1⁄4 cup cornstarch

  • 1⁄3 cup honey

  • 1⁄3 cup apple cider vinegar

  • 1⁄4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • 1⁄4 cup ketchup

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp ground ginger

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Cooked rice and sliced green onions for serving

Preparation

Step 1


Place the chicken pieces, bell peppers, and entire can of pineapple (with juice) into a 5-6 quart slow cooker. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.


Step 2


In a bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic powder, and ginger until smooth. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker.


Step 3


Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours or on HIGH for 1.5-2 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender. Gently stir the chicken and sauce halfway through cooking.


Step 4


Once done, taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed. The sauce will thicken as it sits.


Step 5


Serve the sweet and sour chicken over cooked rice and garnish with sliced green onions. Enjoy!
