Tried a new recipe this week that I found at New Leaf Wellness for Hawaiian Chicken. It is very healthy and very very easy. It's great to have in the rotation for a variety and great for the budget because pineapple is often on sale for 99 cents.
Only thing about this was that the chicken was dry, but I think that was probably user error and either it was over cooked or was slightly freezer burned (only because I had used frozen chicken that was all alone in a bag in the freezer. I was excited to make this and had pineapple so I didn't want to wait until I had fresh chicken).
But, with that said, I'm still recommending it. Because we did like it a lot. I just cut up the chicken real small and added a little more soy sauce on my plate and ate it along with the pineapple and it was fine.
I have another pineapple on my counter right now and plan to make this as a freezer meal again with fresh chicken and see how it goes. I'll try to remember to update!
Ingredients:
1lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into pieces
1 fresh pineapple, but into pieces (or two cans, drained)
2 T brown sugar
2 T soy sauce
Directions:
1. cut chicken and pineapple
2. add all ingredients to a ziplock bag
3. label and freeze
To cook:
thaw overnight in fridge and cook in slow cooker low 3-6 hours
Serve over rice
