I’m excited to share a new recipe with you that combines the sweet and tangy flavors of pineapple with a kick of spicy heat from fresh chilies. This spicy pineapple chicken stir-fry is perfect for those nights when you want something quick, easy, and full of flavor.

Ingredients

  • 400g chicken breast
  • 250g pineapple chunks
  • 150g bell peppers
  • 100g red onion
  • 2 fresh red chilies
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp ginger
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Kitchen Tools

  • wok
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • garlic press
  • grater

Start by heating the vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and sliced chilies, and stir-fry for a minute until fragrant. Add the chicken strips and cook until they are browned on all sides.

Next, add the pineapple chunks, sliced bell peppers, and red onion to the wok. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Pour this sauce over the chicken and vegetables in the wok.

Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the ingredients evenly. The dish is ready when the chicken is cooked through, and the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Serve the spicy pineapple chicken stir-fry hot over steamed rice or noodles. The combination of sweet pineapple, spicy chilies, and savory chicken is sure to excite your taste buds!

This recipe serves 4 people and each serving weighs approximately 300 grams. One serving of this spicy pineapple chicken stir-fry is around 400 calories.

A unique tip for this dish is to grate a little lime zest over the stir-fry just before serving. The bright citrus flavor adds an extra layer of freshness to the dish.

Give this spicy pineapple chicken stir-fry a try and make it your own by adjusting the spice level or adding your favorite veggies. Enjoy!
