    Jump to Recipe
    Chunks of cooked chicken, pinapple, carrots, and peppers served over white rice with text slow cocoker sweet and sour chicken

    This slow cooker Asian style chicken recipe rewards a little prep time in the morning with big returns at dinner time. Feel free to adjust the vegetables to based on what you have on hand - colored bell peppers and broccoli would be excellent substitutions for the carrots and green bell pepper.

      It came out a little mushy, but flavor was good. I would eat this again.
