Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.

Prep the Chicken

Chop the bell peppers and onion into bite-sized pieces. If using fresh pineapple, cut it into chunks.

Prepare Vegetables

Dredge the seasoned chicken pieces in cornstarch until fully coated.

Coat the Chicken

In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the coated chicken pieces in batches and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Fry the Chicken

In the same skillet, add the chopped bell peppers and onion. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still crisp. Add the pineapple chunks and stir for another minute.

Stir-fry Vegetables

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, ketchup, cornstarch, and water until smooth.

Prepare the Sauce

Pour the sauce over the stir-fried vegetables and bring to a simmer. Add the fried chicken back into the skillet and toss everything together to coat well. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Combine Sauce with Ingredients

Transfer the sweet and sour chicken to a serving tray. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
