Chicken sweet-sour with pineapple

serves 3 to 4


Ingredients:

* 1,5 spoon of flour
* 3 spoons of milk or 1 protein ( I ran out of eggs so I used milk instead)
* 1 teaspoon of sea salt
* 1 teaspoon of pepper
* 0,5 teaspoon of chili flakes
* 250g chicken breast
* 1 can of pineapple in pieces
* 1 green paprika
* 1 yellow paprika
* 1 middlesized onion
* 1 garlic clove
* 3 to 5 spoons of tomato ketchup (depending on how thick you want the sauce)
* 1 spoon of ginger syrup
* 1 spoon of brown caster sugar
* 2 spoons of vinegar
* 1 spoon of soy sauce
* Pineapple syrup from the can ( if you have a big can use half of the syrup)

Preparation:

Cut the paprika and onion in slices and finely chop the garlic. Make a marinade out of the flour, milk ( it is better to use protein because it sticks better ), sea salt, pepper and chili flakes. Stir well until it becomes smooth. Cut the chicken breast in cubes of 1 cm. Put in the marinade, mix well and make sure every piece of chicken is covered. Leave along for about 30 to 60 min. Heat up a wok or saute pan with preferable wok oil. Use enough or else the chicken will stick to the pan because of the flour. Stir fry until the chicken is brown. Add the paprika, onion and garlic and stir-fry until the onion looks glassy. Now add the pineapple with the syrup, the tomato ketchup, the ginger syrup, the soy sauce, the sugar and the vinegar. Mix well until the sauce looks smooth. Cook for one minute more and turn off the heat. Serve with rice or noodles, I found that serving with macaroni tastes well too so be sure to consider that and give it a try!

I hope you like the recipe and I hope to see you soon again.
Yours truly,

Mike
