Pineapple Chicken Recipe
Instructions
  1. Take a large skillet. Heat some oil in it on medium-high flame. Add the chicken pieces and toss them gently. Cook them for about 5 minutes until they turn golden. Then add the bell peppers to the skillet and stir gently. Cook for 3 more minutes until the bell peppers turn soft.
  2. Take a bowl and add pineapple juice to it. Then add soy sauce, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, garlic and jalapeño. Give it a mix. Heat a small saucepan and add the mixture to the pan. Bring the sauce to a simmer. Take cornstarch and 2-tablespoon water in the bowl and make a slurry. Add it to the pan and cook until the sauce is thickened.
  3. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the skillet. Let it simmer for 3 minutes. Then, add the pineapple pieces and cashews and give it a stir. Garnish it with green onions and serve hot with steamed rice.
