One pot honey garlic chicken in the crock


One-Pot Honey Garlic Chicken in the Crock-Pot
With pineapple, soy sauce, and of course, honey, this dish reminds me of sweet and sour chicken that you order from your favorite takeout Chinese place -- except this version is healthier. We like it over brown rice.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
1 (20-oz.) can pineapple pieces, juice reserved
2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional)
1/4 cup water (optional)
Directions
