Ingredients
  

  • Boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • Pineapple chunks with juice

Instructions
 

Prepare the slow cooker – Lightly grease the insert or use a liner for easy cleanup.

    Layer the ingredients – Place the chicken breasts at the bottom, then pour in the pineapple chunks with juice, BBQ sauce, soy sauce, and brown sugar.

      Cook low and slow – Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours until the chicken is tender and easily shreddable.

        Shred the chicken – Use two forks to pull the chicken apart, then stir it back into the sauce to soak up all the delicious flavors.

          Serve and enjoy – Spoon over rice, tuck into tacos, or pile onto a sandwich bun for a satisfying meal.
