Sweet Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 (20 oz) can pineapple chunks (with juice)
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 1 tbsp water (optional, for thickening)
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • Cooked white rice (for serving)

Directions:

  1. Place the chicken thighs in the crockpot.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the pineapple chunks with juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, and minced garlic. Stir well to combine.
  3. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken thighs in the crockpot.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
  5. (Optional) For a thicker sauce, whisk together the cornstarch and water, and stir it into the sauce during the last 20-30 minutes of cooking.
  6. Serve the chicken over white rice, spooning the sauce on top. Garnish with chopped green onions and a pinch of red pepper flakes, if desired.
