Print Recipe

Quick, bright, and full of flavor, this Pineapple Chicken Stir-Fry features sweet pineapple and savory chicken in a delightful sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Pineapple Juice
  • 1/3 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1/4 cup Honey
  • 2 tablespoons Hoisin Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 2 teaspoons Rice Vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 pounds Chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper, diced
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups Canned Pineapple Chunks
  • 1/2 cup Green Onions, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sesame Seeds
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix pineapple juice, chicken broth, honey, hoisin, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a single layer. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  4. In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed. Cook onion, red bell pepper, garlic, and ginger until the onion is soft, about 3–4 minutes.
  5. Stir in canned pineapple chunks and cook 1–2 minutes to warm them.
  6. Pour the sauce into the pan and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan and toss to coat. Cook until the sauce thickens and glazes the chicken.
  7. Stir in sliced green onions and sprinkle sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

For best results, cut chicken and vegetables to similar sizes for even cooking. If the sauce gets too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or water.
