Why This Recipe Is So Flavorful

This dish combines sweet pineapple with spicy ginger, creating a perfect balance of flavors. It’s quick to make and packed with protein and fresh vegetables. The vibrant colors also make it a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

Expert Cooking Tips

- Use fresh ginger for the best flavor, but ground ginger works in a pinch.
- Make sure your pan is hot before adding the chicken to get a nice sear.
- Cut the pineapple into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking and easy eating.

Step 1

In a large resealable bag, mix together the coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, rice vinegar, chives, salt, and white pepper. Toss in the chicken and let it marinate at room temperature while you chop the veggies.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add a bit of oil. Once it’s hot and shimmering, throw in the onion along with the red and green bell peppers. Stir-fry them for a couple of minutes until they’re tender but still a little crisp, then take them out and set aside.

Step 3

Using the same pan, add the chicken along with the marinade. Cook it until the chicken turns white all the way through and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Now, add the cooked veggies and the drained pineapple chunks back into the skillet. Give everything a good stir-fry for another 3 minutes so the flavors come together.

Step 5

Pour in the reserved pineapple juice and quickly stir in the arrowroot powder. Keep stirring until the sauce thickens and starts to bubble, which should take about 2 minutes.

Step 6

Serve the stir-fry over hot rice and sprinkle with chopped cashews for a nice crunch. Enjoy!

Perfect Side Pairings

Serve over steamed jasmine rice or noodles to soak up the delicious sauce. Add a sprinkle of chopped green onions or sesame seeds on top for extra texture. A side of steamed broccoli or snap peas pairs well with the dish.

How To Preserve This Dish

Place leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate within two hours of cooking. The stir-fry will keep well for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave to avoid drying out the chicken.
