Sweet N Sour Chicken (version 2)

Here is another version of my all-time favorite "fake out" meal! This is one that my mother prefers and makes often. I love to make it in the mornings and leave it on the "warmer" until dinner time. It is also fairly EASY! Enjoy!

*My hubby prefers the pineapple tidbits instead of the chunks so you can make it to your liking!

I also use my pre-cooked, shredded chicken from the freezer to make it even easier to throw together.

Ingredients:

1 lb boneless cubed chicken

1 Tbl oil

1 cup green/red pepper strips

1/2 cup onion strips

1 Tbl corn starch

1/4 cup lite soy sauce (low sodium)

1 can (8 oz) chunk pineapple in juice

1 1/2 Tbl lemon juice

3 Tbl brown sugar

1/2 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Directions:

Cook chicken in hot oil in large pan until well browned.

Add peppers/onions and cook 1-2 minutes

In a separate bowl wisk the cornstarch and soy sauce making sure that there are no lumps of starch. Add the pineapple and juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic powder.

Pour into pan with chicken and bring to a full boil.

Serve over hot cooked rice
