Easy Chicken With Pineapple Chinese Stir-fry (Sweet And Sour)
If you're a fan of sweet and sour takeout dishes, this easy homemade chicken pineapple stir-fry (aka sweet and sour chicken and pineapple!) could become a new family favourite. Make it in under 30 minutes with just a few simple store cupboard ingredients!
Stir-fry the chicken in a little oil for a few minutes until cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
14 ounces chicken breast
Add a little more oil to the pan, then stir-fry the onion for a minute or two. Add the ginger, pepper pieces, and sweetcorn and mange-tout/snow peas. Stir-fry on high for another few minutes.
Add the chicken back into the pan along with the sauce. Let bubble for a minute or two. Stir through the pineapple, and cashew nuts if using.
1 ounce cashew nuts, 14 ounces pineapple
Serve immediately over rice.
1 ounce cashew nuts
Notes
You can easily replace the chicken with pork or prawns if you prefer.If you are hoping to save some of this for the next day, don’t stir the cashew nuts into the whole pan of food before serving it out. Instead, sprinkle them over each individual plate of food. Reheated cashew nuts = soft and soggy!
