Slow Cooker Sweet and Sour Chicken
This slow cooker sweet and sour chicken is tangy, sticky, and perfectly balanced—just like takeout, but easier.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- ⅓ cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 ½ lbs chicken breast cubed
- 1 red bell pepper cubed
- 1 green bell pepper cubed
- 1 yellow onion cubed
- 1-2 cups Cooked white rice (for serving at the end)
- 10 oz canned pineapple chunks (reserve 1/2 cup of the juice)
Instructions
- Make the sauce first. To a small bowl add in the corn starch and apple cider vinegar whisk to combine the ingredients. Now add in the minced garlic, ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar, and the 1/2 cup of the pineapple juice.
- Whisk well and add this sauce into your slow cooker with the chicken, bell peppers, and onion stir well. Cook on LOW for 4-5 hours OR HIGH for 3 hours or until the chicken is cooked through. We like to serve this sweet and sour chicken over cooked rice (with lots of the sauce over the top)
