Stir-Fried Ginger Pineapple Chicken image

This is an Asian-style stir-fry recipe with no added sugar. Its sweetness comes from canned pineapple in its own juice. If you serve it with cauli-rice, it's grain-free, too!

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

¼ cup coconut aminos (soy-free seasoning sauce)
1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon white pepper
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ onion, quartered and separated into pieces
1 red bell pepper, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 green bell pepper, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice, drained, juice reserved
¾ cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
2 cups cooked jasmine rice for serving, or as needed
½ cup coarsely chopped raw cashews

Steps:

  • Combine coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, rice vinegar, chives, salt, and white pepper in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add chicken to marinade and let sit at room temperature while you prepare the vegetables.
  • Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add oil to hot skillet and heat until it shimmers. Add onion and red and green bell peppers. Stir-fry until vegetables are tender-crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove vegetables from skillet and set aside.
  • Add chicken and marinade to the same skillet and cook until chicken is white and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes. Add vegetables and drained pineapple back to the skillet and stir-fry for 3 minutes.
  • Pour in reserved pineapple juice and stir in arrowroot powder quickly until mixture boils and the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
  • Serve over hot rice and garnish with chopped cashews.
