INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (141g)
1 cup Mixed Bell Peppers (150g)
1/4 cup Pineapple Chunks (41g)
1 tbsp Cornstarch (8g)
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce (16g)
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar (15g)
1 tsp Honey (7g)
1 tsp Olive Oil Spray (4.5g)
2 cloves Garlic, minced (6g)
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, grated (2g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the cornstarch with a pinch of salt and pepper. Lightly toss the chicken breast pieces in the cornstarch mixture for a crispy coating.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and lightly crispy.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the sweet and sour sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, pineapple chunks, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, letting the flavors meld for about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the mixed bell peppers into strips and place them on another baking sheet. Drizzle a tiny bit of olive oil spray and roast in the oven alongside the chicken for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Once everything is done, plate the crispy baked chicken, pour a light drizzle of the sweet and sour sauce over the top, and serve alongside the roasted bell peppers.
Enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal!
