Easy Pineapple Chicken

A delightful stir-fry combining chicken, pineapple, and fresh vegetables in a savory soy sauce marinade.

Ingredients

  • soy sauce (3 tablespoons)
  • olive oil (3 tablespoons)
  • paprika (0.5 teaspoon)
  • salt (0 )
  • boneless skinless chicken breast (1 pound)
  • red bell pepper (1 )
  • scallions (1 bunch)
  • pineapple chunks (1 (12 ounce) can)
  • cornstarch (1 tablespoon)

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients.
  2. Combine soy sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, paprika, and salt in a bowl. Add chicken strips and let marinate while preparing the remaining ingredients.
  3. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and stir-fry for 3 minutes.
  4. Add scallions and cook for 2 more minutes.
  5. Remove chicken from marinade and add to the wok; discard marinade. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes.
