i have the best job ever as a stay at home mommy to three handsome young men...thanks to my hard working husband! after a full day with my boys (which i love) i can't wait for my hubby to get home so we can all sit around the table for dinner. it's a very special time for our family so i try to keep it fun and unpredictable! that is why i am on a mission to find new recipes, tweak old ones and share them with YOU!

honey pineapple chicken

oh my goodness, you guys are going to love this one!  i was browsing through a cookbook at my sister's and spotted this one and just knew that it would be yummo!  if you like sweet and sour chicken, this will end up being a favorite!  serve it up on some white rice and a side of egg rolls and dinner is done.  enjoy!

3 lbs. boneless chicken breasts
2 T. oil
1 (20oz.) can unsweetened crushed pineapple, undrained
1 c. brown sugar, packed
1/2 c. honey
1/3 c. lemon juice
1/4 c. butter, melted
2 T. yellow mustard
2 tsp. soy sauce

In a skillet brown chicken in oil; transfer to crock pot.  Combine the remaining ingredients; pour over chicken.  Cover and cook on low 3-4 hours.  Strain pan juices, reserving pineapple.  Serve pineapple over chicken.
