Method

Cooking Directions

Prepare the Chicken

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.

Coat the Chicken

Toss the chicken pieces in cornstarch until well coated.

Fry the Chicken

Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Fry the coated chicken pieces until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.

Make the Sauce

In the same pan, add diced bell pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add pineapple chunks and cook for another 1-2 minutes.

Combine Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, ketchup, and minced garlic. Pour the sauce over the cooked vegetables and stir to combine.

Add Chicken

Add the crispy chicken back into the pan and toss to coat evenly with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
