Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
Season the chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until golden brown on all sides, approximately 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, pour in the pineapple juice, raspberry jam, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.
Slowly add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Allow the sauce to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
Return the cooked chicken pieces to the pan, tossing them in the sauce until fully coated. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Transfer the raspberry pineapple chicken nibbles to a serving platter.
Garnish with fresh raspberries and sliced green onions, if desired, for a pop of color and added freshness.
Serve warm and enjoy your Raspberry Pineapple Chicken Nibbles as an appetizer, snack, or with a side of rice for a complete meal.
