Zubereitung von Sweet Sour Chicken
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons white vinegar, and 1/4 cup chicken broth.
- Set aside.
- Season 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken cubes generously with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté until no longer pink and lightly browned on all sides (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove chicken from skillet and set aside on a clean plate.
- Add 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped, and 1/2 cup onion, chopped, to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add 1 cup of pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained) and heat for 1 minute.
- Pour in the reserved pineapple-juice mixture.
- Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has reduced by about one-third (about 3-5 minutes).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth.
- Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer for another 2-3 minutes to coat evenly in the sauce.
