Baked Sweet Hawaiian Chicken

 

Hi! I’m ashamed to admit but I usually don’t leave reviews, but now that I am a quarantined teacher who is teaching on line; I understand the importance. I’m constantly looking for feedback to improve my lessons. This recipe was amazing!!! I didn’t have pineapple tidbits but I increased pineapple juice by a quarter cup and added French cut green beans. Thank you for a better than take out recipe! Stay safe, stay home, wade your hands and stop touching your face(you know you were) 

Ingredients

•     1½ cup cornstarch
•     Salt and pepper to taste
•     ¼ cup canola oil
•     3-4 chicken breasts boneless and skinless
•     3 eggs beaten

Sweet Hawaiian Ingredients:

•     1 cup pineapple juice
•     1/3 cup soy sauce
•     1/2 cup brown sugar
•     1 can pineapple tidbits 20 ounce, drained
•     1 teaspoon garlic minced
•     1 red pepper chopped
•     1/2 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

1.     In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, and cornstarch. Add the red pepper and pineapple tidbits. Pour over chicken and bake for 1 hour.
2.     I stir the chicken every 15 minutes so that it coated them in the sauce.
3.     Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned. Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish.
4.     In separate bowls, place cornstarch and slightly beaten eggs. Dip chicken into cornstarch then coat in egg mixture. (yes you dip the chicken first in the cornstarch. I promise this method is amazing.)
5.     Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.
