Pineapple Chicken
Ingredients:
1 ½ - 2lbs of skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-2 inch chunks
1 28oz of pineapple chunks in 100% juice, separated (I removed 1 cup of pineapple chunks)
3 tbl lite soy sauce
1 pinch red pepper flake (I would add more but kiddos don't like spice)
1/4 tsp ginger (more to your preference)
1/4 tsp black pepper (more to your preference)
¼ c brown sugar
1. Spray interior of crockpot with cooking spray.
2. Place Chicken inside, layer pineapple on top without the juice.
3. In small bowl or container mix remaining ingredients until sugar is dissolved. Pour over top and place lip on crock pot.
4. Cook on low 6-8 hours. (I stirred halfway through so the flavors would mix)
Cost aprox: 3.00. I served with broccoli and rice pilaf for a total of $5.50. Serves 4-5 people.
Tip: use a veggie that is in season to keep costs low.

Verdict: I didn't love the pineapple in it, but you could just use a small can of pineapple juice.
