Crockpot Sweet and Sour Chicken
Crockpot Sweet and Sour Chicken with bits of green pepper, pineapple and tender chicken. This mildly sweet dish served over rice is sure to delight.
To begin, cut three boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1 inch cubes. Place it in your crockpot.
Dice an onion. Place it in your crockpot.
Add in a cup of pineapple chunks with the juice.
Add in 1/3 cup each of ketchup and honey.
In a small dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and three tablespoons each of corn starch and rice vinegar. {aff}
Whisk until smooth; pour it in the crockpot.
Cut a green pepper into 1 inch pieces.
Finally add in a tablespoon of minced ginger {aff}. I used this kind that I get in the produce section – no mincing necessary.
Stir it all together. Cook this on low for 6 hours, or high for 4 hours. Serve with cooked, hot rice.
Enjoy!

Maybe I just have a super hot crockpot or something (it’s one of the major brands; nothing odd), but if I cooked chicken breast 6 hours in my crock I’d have shoe leather. Would significantly less time impact the sauce?
