Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Green bell pepper
• 1 large Yellow bell pepper
• 1 15-ounce can Pineapple chunks (canned, in juice)
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 teaspoons Minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (freshly grated)
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 servings Cooked rice (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the bell peppers into thin strips and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the pineapple chunks (including juice), soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir well to form the sauce mixture.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper, then sear them in the skillet for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned. This step adds flavor but is optional.

Step 4

Place the seared chicken breasts into the crock pot.

Step 5

Add the sliced bell peppers and pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 6

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours or high heat for 4 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

Step 7

About 15 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the crock pot to thicken the sauce.

Step 8

Serve the chicken, peppers, and pineapple mixture over cooked rice, if desired.
