Ingredients
For this recipe, you will need:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs, if preferred)
-
1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks, with juice
-
1/2 cup brown sugar
-
1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
-
1/4 cup ketchup
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated (or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger)
-
1 small onion, thinly sliced
-
1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening the sauce)
-
2 tablespoons water (if using cornstarch)
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Optional garnish: sliced green onions, sesame seeds
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the Crockpot
Place the sliced onion in the bottom of your slow cooker. This acts as a flavor base for your chicken and prevents it from sticking to the bottom.
