3. While chicken cooks, prepare the sauce.
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, chicken broth, brown sugar, mirin, Worcestershire and crushed pineapple. Stir in garlic and ginger. Pour sauce into the pot/skillet with the chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low; place cover on pan and cook 25-30 minutes, until chicken is tender and pulls apart easily. Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl and set aside.
5. Using a slotted spoon, remove chicken from pan and place in a bowl. Turn heat up to high and whisk in cornstarch/water mixture. Allow sauce to thicken, then place chicken back in the pot and coat with sauce.

We thought it was tasty and everyone wants it again. I thought it made a bit too much ‘sauce’, so I’ll cut back on the chicken broth next time. I added a red bell pepper, for color and needed veggie; would also be good with some kale, I think.
