Ingredients for Audrey S Oriental Chicken

  • Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • Pineapple Chunks
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • Boneless Chicken Breasts
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper

How to Make Audrey S Oriental Chicken

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons cornstarch until smooth.
  2. Gradually whisk in 1/4 cup white vinegar and 1/2 cup soy sauce until fully combined.
  3. Add 1 cup of drained crushed pineapple, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, and 1/2 cup chopped onion to the sauce. Set aside.
  4. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite-sized pieces) and stir-fry until cooked through and no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Pour the pineapple and vegetable mixture into the wok with the cooked chicken.
  7. Stir until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken evenly (about 1-2 minutes).
  8. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
