Ingredients

  • 6 Qt. Crock-Pot Cook & Carry Slow Cooker
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cubed
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup orange marmalade
  • 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup crushed pineapple drained
  • white rice for serving

Instructions

  • Spray your Crock-Pot with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Place the cubed chicken in the bottom of the Crock-Pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour in the orange marmalade, sweet chili sauce, and crushed pineapple. Toss to combine.
  • Cook on low for 4-5 hours or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165F, stirring occasionally.
  • OPTIONAL: Once the chicken is cooked, use a soup ladle to remove 2 cups of the sauce. Place in a small sauce pan and cook over medium high heat until boiling. Reduce to a simmer and let cook until it reduces by half and has a syrupy consistency. Return caramelized sauce to slow cooker and stir to coat chicken. (SEE NOTE)
  • Serve over white rice if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

NOTE: It's not necessary to reduce the sauce at the end but will give you a bit of a thicker sauce to serve with the chicken. You can also serve directly from the Crock-Pot without reducing sauce.
