We enjoyed our first frozen meal of the month today. It was very yummy!
Here's the short version:
2 chicken breasts (I trimmed them fiercely, because I think chicken is gross)
1 red onion (I used a little one, and cut it in 1" chunks)
3 carrots (also cut in 1" chunks)
1 big can pineapple chunks (which are, conveniently, about 1")
3/4 c. teriyaki sauce (I made mine. It had soy sauce, mirin, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and ground ginger. I didn't measure, so I don't know how to explain it.)
It cooked on LOW for 11 hours...because that's how long my day was. It was probably done after about 6 hours. But it wasn't ruined! If I had a CrockPot with a fancy timer, I would've used it, but I have a very simple CrockPot.
When I got home, I made rice (3/4 c. rice, 1.5 c. chicken broth). Then I cut up the chicken breasts into chunks (you guessed it....about 1"!) and served it all together in my pasta bowls.
The chicken was a smidge dry, but with the sauce from the CrockPot, it was fine. It was just enough for the two of us. I didn't make any other sides to go with it, but something green might've been nice. Maybe some edamame, but my husband doesn't like them. :)
