If you cannot use pineapple juice in the sauce, orange juice will work fine for a slightly different (but still delicious) flavor!

Obsessed. Will make this ALL the time for meal prep from now on.
I'm obsessed with my slow cooker and always looking for new simple delicious recipes and this one did not disappoint. It was so easy to make and packed with amazing flavours. Thanks for this, its a keeper!
This was so good. My husband questioned whether it would be better with shrimp so I’m going to make it outside of the crockpot this time with shrimp. Sauce has such a good flavor. I would consider this a super spicy dish and may notch it down just a bit next time.
Love this recipe!! Glad that all ingredients are Fodmap low so good to eat for people with IBS. Thanks for sharing
Made this for my boyfriend and he LOVED it! I did too! It’s so tasty and EASY. Now I’m going to treat my parents and make it for them too. Highly recommended.
I made this yesterday and had decent results. The flavors in the sauce were great, but my problem lies in the basic flaws of my, or most, by an un-scientific tally of web research, slow cooker; the meat is DRY.
That's a bit disappointing when you've gone through all the proper steps and measures, etc. and seen the delicious looking pictures on the site. (Mine looked mostly like the pictures, but, eh, not quite...) so, next time I try this, I will probably try a 3 hour cooking time and use boneless chicken thigh, since it has a higher fat content. My chicken "coating" was also a little gravy-ish, as others described. May have been my fault, though, because I may not have browned the chicken pieces at a high enough temperature. They weren't exactly "browned" even though I fried them for more than two minutes per side.
Hi I did a review of your recipe: http://emmalovisaa.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06/slow-cooked-general-tsos-chicken.html
I would love if you checked it out! I was so happy with the results; everything tasted absolutely delicious. Thank you so much for the recipe. Your pictures were definitely the selling point.
Kind regards,
Emma
