- place chicken breasts in slow cooker, sprinkle with a little salt.
- place pineapple slices over chicken.
- combine pineapple juice, brown sugar, lemon juice, ginger, and cornstarch, stir until cornstarch mixes with liquids, pour over chicken.
- cover, cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2 1/2-3 hours.
Tips:
- Use a good-quality teriyaki sauce. This is the key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure to use one that you like the taste of.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so cook them just until they are cooked through.
- Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a much better flavor than canned pineapple.
- Grill the pineapple slices before adding them to the sandwiches. This will give them a nice caramelized flavor.
- Serve the sandwiches on Hawaiian rolls. These rolls are soft and fluffy, and they perfectly complement the other flavors in the sandwich.
Conclusion:
These Hawaiian chicken sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. They're perfect for a backyard barbecue or a weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is sure to please everyone at the table.
