Time 4h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried ginger
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (can use frozen, see below)
1 (19 ounce) can pineapple chunks, reserve juice
2 cups baby carrots, cut in half

Steps:

Pour honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, ginger, bouillon and pineapple juice in the crock pot and stir.
Lay chicken on bottom of pot and cover with carrots and pineapple chunks.
Cook in your crock pot for 4-6 hours on low or 3-4 on high. If you are using frozen chicken breast, just add another hour on low or 1/2 hour on high.
I actually like the thinner sauce for this one. A reviewer suggested thickening the sauce, so I will include CarrolJ's recommendation - after the meat, carrots and pineapple are removed, add 1/2 cup of water mixed with 4 Tablespoons of cornstarch. Then cook the sauce until thickened and smooth.

Tips:

Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple adds a bright, tropical flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple chunks, but be sure to drain them well before adding them to the crock pot.
Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can easily become dry and tough if they are overcooked. Cook the chicken on low for 6-8 hours, or until it is cooked through but still tender and juicy.
Serve over rice: Hula chicken is traditionally served over rice. You can use white rice, brown rice, or even cauliflower rice. Serve the chicken and sauce alone, or top with green onions, cilantro, or chopped peanuts.
Make it ahead of time: Hula chicken can be made ahead of time and reheated later. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights or potlucks.

Conclusion:

Crock pot hula chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a casual get-together or a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new crock pot recipe, give hula chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
