Slow Cooker Shredded Hawaiian Chicken



Hawaiian Shredded Chicken is the perfect blend of sweet and savory. It’s flavorful, light, and a simple slow cooker meal. Follow the recipe and serve the chicken in a chard wrap—or feel free to serve it however you wish: on a bed of greens, on top of a sweet potato, or over cauliflower rice. This recipe makes for great leftovers and can be served hot or cold.

INGREDIENTS
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast
1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/2 small onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
8 oz. can crushed pineapple, slightly drained
1/3 cup coconut aminos
1 lime, juiced
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
For the wrap: Swiss chard leaves (or leaf lettuce), avocado slices, shredded carrots, shredded cabbage, green onions, sliced almonds, fresh cilantro, etc.

INSTRUCTIONS

Place chicken, onions, and garlic in a slow cooker.
In a small bowl, combine pineapple, coconut aminos, lime juice, ground ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir to mix, and then add to slow cooker.
Cook on low for 4-6 hours. Remove chicken from slow cooker and shred with two forks.
Return chicken to slow cooker, stir to mix all ingredients, and set the temperature to warm (or low) until ready to serve.
Assemble Swiss chard wraps with desired ingredients.
Instant Pot Directions:
Select ‘Saute’ function. Add 1 Tbsp. fat of choice (we like ghee or coconut oil). When fat is melted, add onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes until onions start to soften.
Add remaining ingredients (chicken through black pepper). Press ‘Cancel’ button and lock lid in place. Flip vent valve to ‘Sealing’ position.

Last year, Bitcoin led a motley pack of so-called cryptocurrencies in one of the great booms in market history, soaring over 2,000 percent to its peak. Since then, it’s led an epic bust that rivals the dot-com era stock market collapse. But there are still plenty of true believers. And as the dust settles, investors and regulators find themselves still grappling with questions first raised when Bitcoin broke into public consciousness five years ago: What exactly is it? How do imitators like Ethereum, Ripple’s XRP and Bitcoin Cash work? Should I buy it? Where do cryptocurrencies fit into the future of money? Here’s a guide for those feeling at sea in these turbulent digital waters. 1. What’s been happening? The total market value of all traded cryptocurrencies exploded late last year to peak at about $800 billion in January by one count.
