Time & Servings:
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4
北 Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast, cubed
cup cornstarch
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup pineapple chunks
1 tablespoon soy sauce
cup ketchup
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
cup apple cider vinegar
cup sugar
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, minced
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish
2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
Instructions:
Toss the chicken cubes in cornstarch until fully coated.
Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and crispy. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add garlic and ginger, sautéing until fragrant.
Add the bell peppers and cook until they start to soften.
Stir in the pineapple chunks and cook for another 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together ketchup, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and water. Pour the sauce into the pan and stir until everything is well coated.
Add the cooked chicken back into the pan, tossing to coat it in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve hot over steamed rice.
Pro Tip:
For extra crispy chicken, double fry the chicken cubes. Fry them once, let them rest, and then fry them again before adding them to the sauce. This ensures a crunchy exterior that holds up to the tangy sauce.
