Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • 1 pound of skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 2 carrots, thinly sliced into julienne strips
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon of ground ginger
  • 4 shallots, finely chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, cut into slender strips
  • 1 can (20 ounces) of pineapple chunks packed in natural juice, with the liquid drained and set aside
  • ½ cup of water
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon of white vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes

Step 1

Begin by heating the oil in a spacious wok or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the chicken and carrots in the sizzling oil until the chicken is cooked through and the carrots are tender, typically taking around 5 minutes. Introduce the garlic and ginger into the mix and let them infuse for another minute. Next, toss in the shallots and bell pepper, giving them a quick sauté for an additional minute.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of the juice from the canned pineapple chunks with the pineapple itself, water, soy sauce, cornstarch, vinegar, and a sprinkle of pepper flakes. Pour this flavorful concoction into the chicken and vegetable blend. Let it simmer until the sauce reaches a desired thickness, stirring constantly to ensure even distribution of flavors.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Utilize airtight containers to preserve the moist tenderness of the golden glazed chicken.
  2. 2. Store the chicken in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prevent spoilage.
  3. 3. Consider reheating the chicken in a skillet for a crispy texture reminiscent of freshly cooked chicken.
