So, I saw this recipe online for pineapple Chicken and I was drooling but once I saw the ingredients ( 1 cup of Brown sugar and 1/2 cup of Soy Sauce)I knew I had to find a way to make it healthier. I brainstormed for a bit and went to Safeway and this is what I came up with and I am rather impressed with the calories I cut out of this recipe.
You will need:
1 can of crushed Pineapple
2 TBSPN Garlic & Ginger paste
1/2 Cup of Mrs.Buttersworth (no sugar added) Syrup
1/2 cup of Ketchup
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and let sit in the fridge while you prep the chicken.
NOTE- I am doing slow cooker pulled chicken but you could also use this for a marinade and bake/BBQ the chicken and it would be great.

Good and good for you :-)
