Start by placing 2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs in the bottom of your crock pot. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 4 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger.
Pour this mixture over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the pineapple salsa by dicing 1 cup of fresh pineapple, 1/4 cup of red onion, and 1/4 cup of cilantro.
In a separate bowl, mix the diced ingredients with the juice of 1 lime and a pinch of salt. Once the chicken is cooked, shred it directly in the crock pot using two forks, mixing it with the sauce.
Serve the honey garlic chicken over cooked rice or quinoa, and top with the fresh pineapple salsa for a vibrant finish.
Enjoy your meal!
