My invented super-easy and colorful chicken recipe makes your house smell wonderful. Occasionally I add vertically sliced onions. If I am using a newer model slow cooker I always cook on Low. The newer models cook hotter and faster than the original slow cookers, and need to be checked for doneness much sooner.
Ingredients:
3 lbs chicken breasts, cubed (no bone or skin)
1 green bell pepper, cubed
1 red bell pepper, cubed
1 (4 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1 (16 ounce) can crushed pineapple, undrained
1 (15 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon ginger, minced
6 tablespoons salted macadamia nuts, chopped
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients, except the macadamia nuts, in a slow cooker.
2. Cover and cook on Low 2-3 hours.
3. Serve over rice. Garnish each serving with with chopped macadamia nuts.
