Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks (canned, with juice)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- 4 cups cooked white rice or brown rice (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot in an even layer.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce, pineapple chunks with their juice, soy sauce, garlic powder, and ground ginger until well combined.
Step 3
Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the chicken in the crock pot.
Step 4
Add the chopped red bell pepper on top of the chicken and sauce.
