Pineapple Chicken For A Crowd 100 By Freda Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the pineapple juice, soy sauce, stock, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, garlic and cornstarch together in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the mixture has reduced to about 1 cup and is the consistency of thick syrup. Set the sauce aside.
• Add the oil to a large nonstick skillet and place over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and season it with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain off any liquid, then add the sauce to the skillet and stir until combined. Add the pineapple and cashews if using; cook, stirring, for an additional 1 minute. Serve the chicken on a bed of rice.

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, paprika, and salt in a bowl. Add chicken strips and let marinate while preparing the remaining ingredients.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a wok. Add bell pepper and stir-fry for 3 minutes. Add scallions and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove chicken from marinade and add to the wok; discard marinade. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the centre, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Combine pineapple juice and cornstarch in a bowl; mix together. Add pineapple chunks to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in pineapple juice mixture and bring to a boil. Simmer until sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes.
