Sweet and Sour Pineapple Chicken


Serves 4
Prep Time: 5 min
Total Time: 20 min

INGREDIENTS:
- 20 ounces pineapple, crushed

- 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon soy sauce (I used Liquid Aminos for lower sodium)
- 1.5 Cups mushrooms, sliced
- 3/4 Cup Red Bell pepper, chopped
- 1 Cup chopped green onions
- 1 Pound Chicken breast, boneless/skinless, raw
- Brown Rice

DIRECTIONS:
1) Drain the juice from the pineapples (I used a juicer) and pour it into a large saucepan. Add the cornstarch and stir to dissolve it. Add the vinegar and the soy sauce. Set the pineapple chunks to the side.
2) Place the pan on the stove on medium-high heat. Cook until sauce is thickened, about 4 minutes, stirring constantly
3) Add pineapple, mushrooms, peppers, onions and chicken.
4) Cover and cook over medium heat until chicken is done, about 8 minutes.
5) Serve sweet and sour chicken sauce over the cooked brown rice.
