Slow Cooker Sweet and Tangy Chicken

  3.8 – 412 reviews  • Chicken Breast

Make these salads once, then enjoy them for the entire week! The spinach will keep fresh for the entire week if you firmly put it into each jar. Whenever more spinach is required. An excellent way to use up leftover quinoa!

So easy but so good…I was bummed I only had a large can of crushed pineapple but it seemed to work well. Was great over rice with a side of broccoli. I would definitely make it again
Jennifer Peterson
I make this all the time. Love this recipe! The only thing I add is water chestnuts. My kids love this as well.

Note, I only used one bottle of BBQ sauce and cut the amount of chicken. very easy and nice contrast with the BBQ sauce and pineapple. Chunks worked fine. Next time I make will add more ingredients, like cashews and other peppers
Christopher Anderson
delicious!
Holly Cooke
This was great! I reduced the amounts because I only made 4 chicken breasts but it was sooo good!
Christopher Sanchez
Very sweet and tangy. It was good served over rice but I would use about 3/4 to 1/2 of the barbecue sauce.
Vanessa Davis
Tasted like BBQ sauce on chicken. I was not a fan at all.
Nicholas Newman
My hubby really liked it. We added some hot sauce to spice it up a little.
Christopher Garza
This recipe is so, so good. Served over rice, this is a delicious hot meal that my whole family loves. I’ve made it many times. I cant believe there are negative reviews out there!

I love this dish!!!

This is the first recipe I’ve tried from this website. I followed the recipe exactly except no garlic. This is also my first time using a slow cooker. I cooked the chicken on high for 5 hours. The flavor was amazing but the chicken was dry. Probably didn’t need to cook for 5 hours.
David Flores
The recipe was very easy, but my family just didn’t like the taste. oh, well. I guess we will try something else next time.
Katherine Wright
Not very good … BBQ was too overbearing

Was skeptical because of the reviews but this is delish. I salt & peppered chicken thighs & seasoned with a little garlic powder. I also added about 2 tbsp of honey for a little extra sweetness. I used a large yellow onion, 1 green pepper & 1 red pepper. I also used sweet baby rays honey bbq sauce. Definitely a keeper. Oh and only cook on high for about 3.5 to 4 hrs.

I followed the recipe exactly except for scaling back on all the ingredients because I only made two chicken breasts. I left it in the slow cooker for 9 hours on low, the chicken was so moist and tender it fell apart! For all those changing everything, it’s unnecessary; it tastes great as is. I served it over rice and my husband and I loved it! This will be in our rotation for sure.
Samuel Lyons
husband wouldn’t even taste it, said it smelled weird.
Thomas Luna
This is a good recipe – maybe a little too sweet though. We put it over a fried rice recipe I found on this website.
