Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken tenderloins
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • pinch ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce (I used Pineapple BBQ sauce)
  • ¼ cup pineapple juice
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks

Instructions

  • Sprinkle each tenderloin with salt, garlic powder and pepper
  • Place in crock along with pineapple chunks
  • Whisk together BBQ sauce and juice and pour over chicken
  • Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours or high for 3-4 until chicken is fully cooked

Notes

OPTIONAL: Melt one tablespoon butter in skillet. Place seasoned chicken tenderloins in skillet, letting cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned, then place in crock.
I made this in my 3.5 quart slow cooker on high for 3.5 hours.
