Aloha Pineapple Chicken Dinner

Step 1

Follow cooking instructions for your rice to prepare while you are making the chicken. I use my Instant Pot.

Step 2

Cut the chicken into strips. Put the flour into a gallon bag and add the chicken. Shake to coat.

Step 3

Brown the chicken with the oil over medium heat in a skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes each side or until cooked through and juices are clear. Set the chicken aside.

Step 4

While the chicken is cooking, drain the pineapple juice and reserve 1/4 cup. (You can discard the remaining juice or drink it.)

Step 5

Combine the cornstarch and 1/4 cup pineapple juice in a small bowl. Add to the skillet after you’ve removed the chicken. Add the honey, soy sauce, and pepper; stir well.

Step 6

Increase the heat to medium-high and cook and stir. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for another 30-60 seconds or until the juice mixture is thickened.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to medium and add the pineapple and chicken, heating through.

Step 8

Serve over rice.
