Ingredients

1 cup
pineapple juice
2 tbsp
brown sugar
2 tbsp
rice vinegar
2 tbsp
tamari
2 tbsp
tomato ketchup
2
garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp
freshly grated ginger
1 tbsp
cornstarch
1 tbsp
oil
2
boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
1
red bell pepper, diced
1
yellow bell pepper, diced
1 cup
diced pineapple
2
green onions, sliced
1 tsp
sesame seeds

Directions

In a small bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, brown sugar, rice vinegar, tamari, ketchup, garlic, and ginger. Whisk in the cornstarch. Set it aside.

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is no longer pink and begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and pineapple chunks. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the sauce into the skillet, and cook, stirring, until the sauce reduces and thickens, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Serve immediately topped with the green onions and sesame seeds or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
