How to Make Catalina Pineapple Chicken in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
This Crock Pot Catalina Pineapple Chicken from Gooseberry Patch’sSpeedy Slow-Cooker Recipes
is so simple and quick. It worked out perfect for me. Ryder was sick this week, and I needed to go into work extremely early so I could get back to him before his fever went up again. I was able to throw together dinner before I left and still get to work way before the sun even thought about shining.
Are you ready for this super duper hard recipe? Spray your crockpot with cooking spray. Put your chicken in…pour the Catalina dressing, pineapple chunks (drained) and 1/4 cup of pineapple juice over top of the chicken. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or for 3 hours on high. That’s it!
You want to make sure the chicken is cooked through, but don’t overcook it and dry it out. I would also recommend serving this with plenty of juice served over your chicken…it makes the flavor really pop.

I'm wife to Michael (not Mikey 😉 ) and mom to Mr. Ryder and Miss Iyla. I'm just walking through this life step by step focusing on enjoying the little things in life. I am in awe of the many blessings big and small I receive daily from a pretty amazing God who calls me His own. Sometimes life is crazy and messy, but I am loving every minute of it.

Hi Aunt Lou – I love this recipe. Yes, as simple as you described.Some variations – It is okay to add some firm veggies to the pot – such as bell pepper strips, seeded jalapenos [after all, we are in Texas], rough chopped onions, and asparagus. No need to add sugar – there is plenty from the pineapple.
I had some pork steaks and used them instead of chicken – worked beautifully.
The extra pineapple juice really isn’t good for much I am afraid – it has a metallic taste.
Thank you for a wonderful, and simple, recipe.

Would this work as shredded chicken for sandwiches as well?

I haven’t tried shredding this and putting it on a bun, but that sounds yummy! If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!
