Honey Pineapple Chicken image

I adapted a dinnertime favorite for my slow cooker because it's so much easier to do the preparation in advance, then let the chicken cook on its own while I do other things. Your family will love the combination of sweet and savory flavors. -Carol Gillespie, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania
