Okay I bookmarked this recipe (from the group The Dairy Free Diva Recipe Exchange) a long time ago and finally made it last night. No pictures - sorry.

It was so tasty and easy I thought I'd post it here and give it more exposure. Enjoy, and thanks GirlA!

************************************
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 boneless chicken breast halves
3/4 cup honey
3/4 cup lite soy sauce
3 tablespoons ketchup
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple tidbits, drained with juice reserved
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup water

In a bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic, ginger, and reserved pineapple juice. Pour into the slow cooker over the chicken.

Cover, and cook 6 hours on low or 4 hours on high.

Remove chicken from slow cooker (I shredded the chicken) and cover with foil. Ladle sauce into a small sauce pan. Combine cornstarch and water and add to sauce. Cook on med to high heat until thickened. Add tidbits of pineapple to sauce and serve over chicken.

Serve over plain pilaf, or cooked white rice. You can also add steamed veggies or toss them in the slow cooker during last hour of cooking...such as bells peppers, water chestnuts, broccoli, zucchini--you name it!

    could I put BBQ sauce instead of the ketchup or would that be nasty? Is it pretty sweet?

    I didn't taste the ketchup at all. Maybe just skip it? Not sure.
