Sweet and Sour Pineapple Chicken
Sweet and Sour Pineapple Chicken is one of my all time favorites, but I wanted a healthier version. At the end of the day, though, I love that I can double this recipe so I have some for dinner and then lunch the next day. It’s just that easy and fulfills all of my Sweet and Sour Pineapple Chicken cravings.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Place the chicken cubes in a bowl and toss with the cornstarch. Add the whisked egg and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and toss to coat. Let sit for 15 minutes at room temperature, or overnight in the fridge.
- Step 2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large saute pan or wok over high heat. Add the chicken in an even layer, and cook for 3 minutes. Remove to a plate.
- Step 4
Turn the heat to medium and add more oil if needed. Add the bell peppers, snow peas, and ginger and cook for 1 minute. Add the pineapple chunks, sauce, and chicken. Turn the heat up to high and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Top with the chopped scallions.
