The sauce was good, but the chicken didn't absorb a lot of the flavor of the sauce. I cooked it on high for about 3 hours. We served it with rice as suggested. The next day, we put the leftovers on buns with barbecue sauce and pineapple slices. I want to try this recipe again cooking it on low, that might help with the flavor of the chicken! Thanks weekend cooker! -
I was surprised how good this was. I used crushed pineapple & left out the cornstarch. After the chicken was done & put the instant rice in the sauce to soak it up. Yum! Made for PRMR Tag. -
I made a couple of small changes: using diced fresh ginger instead of the powdered, 1 half small chopped onion and added 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes. It still seemed to be lacking something, Used low sodium soy sauce so maybe that was part of it. I cooked on low 6 hours and ended up shredding the chicken and mixing it all together. It was OK but not sure I would make again.

This was okay, I used pineapple chunks instead of the pineapple slices but otherwise made as directed. We served this with broccoli for a very easy dinner. Thanks for sharing! -
Very good! I was surprised that the chicken wasn't very pineapple-y, you needed to scoop sauce onto the bite to taste any. I use crushed pineapple and for the reason above, I'm glad. While the color of the sauce wasn't very appealing, it tasted great!
