Cooking Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325° F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Cut chicken breasts into bite-size pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Place cornstarch in a large bowl, and eggs in a separate medium bowl. Dip chicken pieces in cornstarch to coat, then coat in eggs.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook coated chicken, in batches to avoid over-crowding the pan, until golden-brown on all sides. Place chicken in the prepared dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients; pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and cornstarch. Pour evenly over chicken. Sprinkle chopped bell pepper and pineapple on top of the chicken.
- Bake, uncovered, for 1 hour. Stir the chicken every 15 minutes for even sauce coating. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
This dish is best served with rice or noodles to soak up the delicious sauce.
