I’m so excited to share this new recipe for Sweet Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken.  It’s healthy, delicious, and so easy to make!

Easy and Healthy Sweet Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken - throw all the ingredients and you're set!

What’s so great about this recipe for Sweet Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken?

  • It’s naturally sweetened with a cup of apple juice.  That means you only need to add a bit of brown sugar AND it has enough liquid to be cooked in an Instant Pot.
  • It can be cooked fresh or frozen (raw) and cooked later.
  • It’s simple and delicious!

I love that this recipe is so simple.  I’m busy with four little kids (and a fifth on the way!), so having dinner waiting in my crockpot is a big relief at the end of the day.  Is anyone else a fan of easy and healthy crockpot recipes?

I shared my favorite recipes for crockpot chicken teriyaki and crockpot honey garlic chicken earlier this year, and there are hundreds of other options on my New Leaf Wellness blog.

A lot of sweet Hawaiian crockpot chicken recipes are made with soy sauce, but I think that only takes away from the sweetness.  I like to omit it altogether.  Give it a try my way – you can always add some soy sauce on top when serving if you think it needs it.

I like to serve this sweet Hawaiian chicken over rice (made in my programmable rice cooker, of course).  Super easy and yummy.

      There are a TON of crockpot freezer meals in my cookbook eBooks, but they are mostly exclusive recipes. That means they appear in the books and no where else – definitely my best recipes though!

(Like Mickey!) I started 30days several years ago as my idea file. After 9 years and thousands of ideas, I realize I’ll never be able to check them all off my list.
