Ingredients

4 servings

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (diced)
salt and black pepper (to taste)
2 cups diced bell peppers (red, orange or yellow)
1 whole pineapple (diced)
3 cups cooked white rice
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
½ teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic

Steps

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season chicken with salt and pepper then add to the skillet.
Sear outside until a nice golden crust forms.
Remove chicken from pan, add in bell peppers and saute for 3-5 minutes until tender, remove from pan.
Add sauce ingredients to pan, and bring to a simmer, add chicken back in, and cook on medium-low heat, letting sauce reduce while chicken cooks through.
Add peppers and pineapple to pan, and cook a few minutes more, until sauce is thick, sticky, and glossy, and peppers are tender.
Serve over cooked white rice.
