INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 medium Onion
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Ginger Powder
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, whisk together the egg white, cornstarch, garlic powder, and ginger powder until smooth.
Toss the chicken pieces in the egg white mixture until evenly coated.
Spread the chicken pieces out on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, turning halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly crispy on the edges.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the sweet and sour sauce by combining pineapple chunks, diced red bell pepper, and diced onion in a small saucepan. Add rice vinegar and low-sodium soy sauce.
Simmer the sauce over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the flavors meld and the vegetables are slightly softened.
Once the chicken is baked, transfer it to a bowl and toss gently with the warm sauce. Drizzle with sesame oil and mix well.
Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy baked sweet and sour chicken!
