INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
30g Cornstarch
1 Egg White (30g)
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks (82g)
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper (75g)
1/4 cup Onion (40g)
2 Tbsp Low-Sugar Ketchup (30g)
1 Tbsp Rice Vinegar (15g)
1 tsp Honey (7g)
1 clove Minced Garlic (3g)
1/2 tsp Grated Ginger (1g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch until evenly coated. Then add the egg white and mix to form a light coating.
Arrange the chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake the chicken for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through and lightly crispy, turning halfway through for even baking.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the sweet and sour sauce by combining pineapple chunks, red bell pepper, onion, low-sugar ketchup, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a light simmer over medium heat for about 5-6 minutes until the flavors meld.
Once the chicken is baked, transfer it to a serving bowl and drizzle the warm sweet and sour sauce over the top. Toss gently to coat all pieces.
Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy, flavorful meal.
