Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken breast
- 250 grams pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper
- 1 medium carrot
- 100 grams broccoli florets
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon ginger
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 100 milliliters water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and black pepper, and set aside.
Dice the red and yellow bell peppers and slice the carrot thinly. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger if not already prepared.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, water, and cornstarch. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Add garlic and ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets, sliced carrots, and diced bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Stir in the pineapple chunks and cooked chicken. Mix well.
Give the prepared sauce a quick stir and pour it into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables evenly.
Serve the Chicken Pineapple Stir Fry hot over steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy!
