Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1-1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 2" chunks
  • 1 cup snow peas, halved
  • 1 large green pepper, cut into large squares
  • 1 large onion, cut into large squares
  • 1 14 ounce can pineapple chunks
  • 3 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Hot cooked rice or noodles
  • I like to toast some slivered almonds and sprinkle them over the top as a garnish.

Directions
  1. In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over high heat.
  2. Add chicken and stir-fry until cooked through and slightly browned, about 12-15 minutes.
  3. Remove to a bowl, leaving the oil behind.
  4. Add snow peas, green pepper and onion to the skillet and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes, just until the color brightens.
  5. Add to the bowl with the chicken.
  6. Drain the juice from the pineapple chunks into a measuring cup.
  7. Add enough water to the juice to make 1-1/4 cups of liquid. (Reserve the pineapple chunks, of course.)
  8. Into the juice mixture, stir brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, cornstarch, ginger and garlic.
  9. Pour this mixture into the skillet, lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the sauce simmers and begins to thicken, about 3 minutes.
  10. Return the chicken and vegetables to the pan along with the pineapple chunks and continue to cook, stirring constantly for 3 to 5 minutes or until the sauce is glossy and thick and everything is heated through.
  11. Serve immediately with rice.
