CROCK POT (Slow Cooker) PINEAPPLE CHICKEN with SWEET POTATOES AND CARROTS

CROCK POT (Slow Cooker) PINEAPPLE CHICKEN with SWEET POTATOES AND CARROTS

2 pounds ( approx. 1kg ) boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup orange juice
1 cup pineapple juice
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 large sweet potato-diced
6 carrots cut up
1 onion-chopped (optional)
1 small can pineapple chunks

Place cut up carrots, sweet potatoes in bottom of crock pot then add chicken breasts.
In a large bowl add, brown sugar, pineapple juice, orange juice, soy sauce, ginger and garlic
salt pour over chicken, sweet potatoes and carrots in crock pot.
About one hour before done add the small can of pineapple chunks so they can heat up with rest of food.
Cook on low until chicken is tender maybe 6 hours
High for maybe four depends on your crock pot.
In the picture I had added a chopped up onion-it was good but it is optional.
Of course if you want to cut down on the sugar in this you can get no sugar added juices
and pineapple chunks.
