I made this chicken dish today. It doesn't look anything like the photo. The sauce is water thin ... so the chicken just looks "cooked" and not at all saucy. It tastes delicious though! I would recommend serving over white rice with some of the sauce. I made mac & cheese - which was not a good choice. It would have been a "ten" if the sauce thickened up. Any suggestions?

Roxanne, there are a few things to try...I find that if I reduce the liquid by a third it makes for a better sauce in a crock...or put it in a pot and boil, reduce to a gentle boil and cook until reduced by half..or turn the crock on high, add some cornstarch, put the lid back on and let it cook for about a half hour. Also, some people put the chicken in the crock still frozen...it adds a lot of liquid if done this way. By far for flavor, I would put the liquid in a pot and cook on stove until reduced by half.

I went on Pintrest and looked up the origianl recipe. It doesn't say anything about a crockpot. It says in a saucepan over med heat mix ing and remove before boil. Cover and marinade and ref for at least 30 min. Preheat grill for med heat. Grill 5 min. watch closely.

The chicken was good. My youngest daughter and grandson both liked it, but it looks nothing like the picture. Maybe cooking it in a skillet would make it look like that? I made 5#'s of chicken, but only used 2 cups of pineapple juice and 2/3 cup soy sauce so I had nowhere near that liquid that I would have had if I had followed it exactly. I would make it again, but maybe try a different cooking method.

After reading comments here I did a little tweaking and it came out great. I doubled everything except the soy sauce and then I added 1/3 cup of ketchup. I put the sauce on the stove and thickened it with 4 T of cornstarch mixed with 3/4 cup of water. Once it was to the consistency I wanted I put it in the crockpot with the chicken. If the sauce gets a little too thick while cooking you can add a little water to thin it down.
