Step Two
Mix up the sweet and sour sauce. Pour into a bowl, ¼ a cup of soy sauce, ⅓ a cup of honey, ⅓ a cup of ketchup, 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of ground ginger. Use a whisk to mix all these ingredients together.
Step Three
Cut up your chicken breasts into cubes. Once they are cubed, put the chicken into a large zip lock bag and add a quarter cup of cornstarch into the bag. Take the air out of the bag and zip it up, then mix it around till the chicken is all coated.
Step Four
Heat up a frying pan and add some oil in. Place in your chicken to fry it up just a little bit before putting it into the crockpot. Just brown the outsides of the chicken. Add more oil as you need it, you might have to cook the chicken in a few batches.
Step Five
Place all the veggies into the crockpot, a 20 ounce can of pineapples with the juice, your cooked chicken, and the sauce you made in step two. Allow the crockpot to cook for 3-4 hours.
