Today’s Unique Recipe: Spicy Pineapple Basil Chicken

As the weather starts to cool down, I find myself craving flavors that transport me to warmer climates. That’s why today, I’m excited to share my recipe for Spicy Pineapple Basil Chicken. It’s a perfect blend of sweet, savory, and spicy that will surely brighten up your dinner table.

Ingredients:

  • chicken breast (400g)
  • fresh pineapple (200g)
  • fresh basil leaves (20g)
  • red chili flakes (1 tsp)
  • soy sauce (3 tbsp)
  • honey (2 tbsp)
  • garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • ginger (1-inch piece, grated)
  • olive oil (2 tbsp)

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • measuring spoons

Start by heating olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring until fragrant. Then, add the chicken breast cubes to the skillet and cook until they are browned on all sides.

Next, pour in the soy sauce and honey, stirring to coat the chicken evenly. Allow the sauce to simmer and thicken slightly before adding the fresh pineapple chunks and red chili flakes. Let everything cook together for a few minutes until the pineapple is heated through.

Finally, tear the fresh basil leaves into the skillet and gently stir to incorporate them into the dish. The aroma of the basil mixing with the sweet pineapple and savory chicken is simply irresistible.

Once everything is cooked to perfection, serve the Spicy Pineapple Basil Chicken hot over a bed of fluffy jasmine rice. The vibrant colors and bold flavors of this dish are sure to impress your taste buds.

Approximate total weight of the cooked dish: 700g
Approximate number of servings: 4
Average weight of one serving: 175g
Approximate calorie count per serving: 300 calories

A clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, honey, and garlic for an hour before cooking. This will infuse the meat with even more flavor and tenderness.

I encourage you to give this Spicy Pineapple Basil Chicken recipe a try and feel free to customize it with your favorite additions. Enjoy the burst of tropical flavors in every bite!
