Pineapple Chicken

Step 1

Make the Stir-fry Sauce - In a medium bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, chicken broth, honey, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and cornstarch until no lumps remain. Set aside.

Step 2

Season the Chicken - In a medium bowl, combine diced chicken, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Cook the Chicken - Heat a large wok, nonstick pan, or stainless steel pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil. Once hot and shimmering, carefully add the chicken in a single layer. Sear without moving until browned, about 1 minute. Stir-fry until no longer pink, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 4

Cook the Vegetables - Add the bell peppers, and stir-fry until crisp-tender, 1 minute. Add the pineapple, and stir-fry until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook until aromatic, 30 seconds.

Step 5

Thicken the Sauce - Add the stir-fry sauce and bring it to a boil. Stir and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Turn off the heat and stir in ¼ cup of green onions.

Step 6

Plate & Serve - Garnish with the remaining green onions and sesame seeds. Serve with steamed rice, desired side dishes, or in a pineapple boat.
