Ingredients

Qty Unit Ingredient
3 Turkey - thighs skinned
1/4 C Soy sauce - reduced sodium
2 Tb Ginger - fresh, minced and peeled
2 Tb Brown sugar, packed
3 Garlic cloves, minced
1/4 Tb Crushed red pepper
3/4 Onion - medium red, halved and cut into 1/2 inch wedges through root end

Instructions

Place the turkey thighs in a 6 quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, ginger, brown sugar, garlic, and crushed red pepper. Pour over the turkey. Add onion and broth. Cover, cooking for 8 to 10 hours on low or 4 to 5 hours on high, until turkey is tender. At the end of the cooking time, transfer the turkey to a plate and refrigerate until it is cool enough to handle. Drain the pineapple, reserving the juice in a bowl. Whisk cornstarch and vinegar into the pineapple juice. Stir in 1/4 cup of the liquid from the slow cooker until blended. Stir mixture into the slow cooker. Add bell pepper and snow peas to the slow cooker. Cover, cooking on high until the mixture simmers and vegetables are crisp, about 15 minutes. Remove turkey from the bone, cutting it into bite size pieces. Stir turkey and pineapple into the slow cooker. Cover, cooking on high until the turkey is hot, about 2 minutes. Serve.
