Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds 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 (20-ounce) can pineapple chunks in 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 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps

  1. Place chicken pieces, bell peppers, and the entire can of pineapple with juice into a 5-6 quart slow cooker.
  2. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together cornstarch, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic powder, and ginger until smooth.
  4. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker.
  5. Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours or on HIGH for 1.5-2 hours, until chicken is cooked through and tender, stirring gently halfway through.
