Method
 

Steps
  1. Start by chopping your onions and mincing the garlic. If using chicken breasts, cube them for even cooking.
  2. Layer the chicken, pineapple, garlic, onions, soy sauce, and brown sugar in the crockpot.
  3. Set your crockpot on low for 6 hours.
  4. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with water and stir into the crockpot during the last 30 minutes.
  5. Once cooking is complete, shred the chicken with two forks, mix everything together, and serve over rice, noodles, or in tacos.
