1
Place the chopped chicken pieces in a bowl, add cornflour, salt, and pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken chunks.
2
Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan on high heat.
3
Once the oil is hot, add chicken pieces. Cook on high heat until chicken is golden on all sides, stirring occasionally.
4
Add onions and bell peppers to the wok. Stir fry with the chicken for a minute.
5
Drain the pineapple chunks, reserving the juice. Pat dry the pineapple pieces with a kitchen towel to prevent splattering while cooking.
6
Add pineapple chunks to the wok, stir fry for two minutes.
7
Stir in the brown sugar, low-sodium soy sauce, and tomato puree into the reserved pineapple juice. Mix well to combine.
8
Pour this mixture over the contents of the wok.
9
Mix in the minced garlic and grated ginger.
10
Cook on high heat, stirring occasionally, allowing the sauce to bubble and reduce down. This should take about 5-6 minutes and make the chicken look darker and caramelized.
11
Once the chicken is well cooked and the sauce is nicely thickened, turn off the heat. Spoon the mixture over boiled jasmine rice, garnish with fresh coriander leaves, and serve.
