Sweet and sour Chicken

Sweet and sour Chicken

Originally this recipe was called Tahitian treat dinner. I used it for years them my wife became allergic to pork and all pork byproducts. It was made using Spam or a spam like substitute. I have since redone it using chicken. It is outstanding if I say so myself...


Ingredients:
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup water
1 20oz can of pineapple chunks packed in own juice- reserve the juice
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 cup bell pepper - cut into strips
1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breast cup into 1" cubes


In a skillet cook the chicken chunks in just a little olive oil till done. Drain off fat.

In a sauce pan mix the sugar and cornstarch add pineapple juice, water and vinegar. Heat over medium heat stirring constantly till clear and thick.

Stir in the cooked meat, pineapple chunks and peppers. Cook together for about 10 minutes till done.

Serve over hot rice.

Serves 4
