Today’s Recipe: Sweet and Spicy Pineapple Chicken Stir-Fry

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a new recipe that perfectly combines sweet and spicy flavors in a delicious pineapple chicken stir-fry. This dish is great for any time of year but is especially refreshing during the warmer months with its tropical twist. Let’s dive into the details!

Ingredients:

  • 300g chicken breast
  • 200g pineapple chunks
  • 1 large red bell pepper
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1-inch ginger
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Kitchen Tools:

  • wok
  • wooden spoon
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • measuring spoons

To start, heat vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant. Next, add in the chicken breast strips and cook until browned on all sides.

Once the chicken is cooked, add sliced onion, red bell pepper, and pineapple chunks to the wok. Stir-fry for a few minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened but still crisp.

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, chili flakes, rice vinegar, and cornstarch until well combined. Pour this sauce over the chicken and vegetable mixture, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serving:

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g. This recipe serves 4, with each serving weighing around 200g. Each serving is estimated to contain 300 calories.

One helpful tip for this dish is to add a splash of pineapple juice from the can when mixing the sauce. This extra burst of pineapple flavor really takes the stir-fry to the next level!

I hope you give this sweet and spicy pineapple chicken stir-fry a try and enjoy the unique blend of flavors. Don’t be afraid to customize the recipe with your favorite vegetables or adjust the level of spice to suit your taste. Happy cooking!
