Ingredients

– 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

– 1 cup barbecue sauce
– 1/2 cup soy sauce
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 3 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

Creating these sumptuous Crock Pot Hawaiian Chicken Sandwiches is straightforward! Follow these steps for delicious results:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of your crock pot.
2. Combine Sauce Ingredients: In a bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, sesame oil, and black pepper.
3. Add Pineapple: Pour the pineapple chunks over the chicken, followed by the sauce mixture, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
4. Set the Crock Pot: Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
5. Check for Doneness: About 30 minutes before serving, check if the chicken is cooked through. It should shred easily with a fork.
6. Shred the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the crock pot, shred it with two forks, then return it to the pot to soak up more sauce.
7. Prepare the Buns: While the chicken is soaking in the sauce, slice your hamburger buns in half and toast them lightly if desired.
8. Assemble Sandwiches: Spoon the shredded chicken generously onto the bottom half of each bun. Add your choice of toppings.
9. Serve: Place the top half of the bun on each sandwich and serve immediately while warm.
