Add the chicken breasts, barbecue sauce, and pineapple chunks with their juice to a 6-quart slow cooker. Give everything a gentle stir to coat the chicken.

Cover with the lid and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, or if you're in a hurry, cook on high for 3 to 4 hours until the chicken easily shreds with a fork.

Using two forks, shred the cooked chicken right in the slow cooker and mix it thoroughly with all the delicious sauce and pineapple.

Spoon the hawaiian chicken over steamed rice and sprinkle with chopped green onions for a fresh finishing touch. Serve while hot and enjoy every bite!
