Guila Sandroussy

No deep frying necessary!


I get you, deep frying when you actually just want it for that pineapple sauce is a pain.


Here you have all the tangy and sweet that a pineapple sauce can offer, and you made it in 20 minutes!



pineapple chicken



  • 2 large chicken breasts, cubed

  • 2 tbsp flour

  • 1/4 cup oil

  • 1 onion, diced

  • 1 pepper, cubed

  • 1 can (398ml) of pineapple chunks (with juice)

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 2 cubes frozen ginger (2 tsp fresh minced)

  • 2/3 cup sweet chili sauce (divided)

  • 1 tbsp paprika

  • 1 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch, diluted in 1/2 cup water

  • Sesame seeds, to top

  • Greens (like herbs or green onions), to top



DIRECTIONS:


  1. Start by tossing your chicken cubes in flour. Simultaneously, heat a stainless steel skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add oil.

  2. Brown your chicken on both sides. Remove from pan and set aside.

  3. Add onion to the pan. Don’t let them brown. Once a little soft, add peppers and pineapple can. Reduce heat to low.

  4. Add garlic, ginger, 1/3 cup sweet chili sauce, paprika and salt. Let it cook for 5 minutes.

  5. Return chicken to pan. Mix everything together, add cornstarch in water. Mix, cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes.

  6. Remove from heat. Add remaining 1/3 sweet chili sauce. Top with sesame seeds and the greens of your choice!
