Ingredients

  • 1 20-ounce can pineapple chunks
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and large diced

Instructions

  1. Drain the pineapple chunks, reserving the juice.

  3. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the drained pineapple juice, garlic, red pepper flakes, honey, Mae Ploy sweet chili sauce and soy sauce.
  4. Whisk together the water and cornstarch in a small bowl to make a slurry. Add slurry into pineapple juice mixture.
  5. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker and stir so the chicken is well-coated.
