Baked Sweet Hawaiian Chicken

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

In separate bowls, place cornstarch and slightly beaten eggs. Dip chicken into cornstarch then coat in egg mixture. (yes you dip the chicken first in the cornstarch. I promise this method is amazing.)

Step 3

Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned. Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish.

Step 4

In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, and cornstarch. Add the red pepper and pineapple tidbits. Pour over chicken and bake for 1 hour.

Step 5

I stir the chicken every 15 minutes so that it coated them in the sauce.
