INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper (approx 60g)
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Pineapple Juice
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
1 tsp Cornstarch
1 tsp Fresh Ginger (grated)
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pound the chicken breast lightly between two sheets of plastic wrap to ensure even thickness. Season lightly with a pinch of salt.
Set up a shallow dish with the panko breadcrumbs. Dredge the chicken breast in the breadcrumbs until evenly coated.
Place the breaded chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan, combine pineapple juice, rice vinegar, grated ginger, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Whisk over medium heat until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy, about 3-5 minutes.
Brush the chicken with a portion of the sweet and sour sauce, reserving some for drizzling later.
Arrange the sliced red bell pepper and pineapple chunks around the chicken on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the coating is crispy. Optionally, broil for the last 2 minutes to enhance the crispiness.
Drizzle the remaining sweet and sour sauce over the chicken and vegetables before serving.
