Required ingredients::
Chicken fillet

800~900 grams
Bell pepper

1 pc
Canned pineapple

500 grams
Starch

4 tablespoons
Soy sauce

3 tablespoons
Tomato sauce

150~200 grams
Oil

100 milliliters
Lemon juice or vinegar 9%

1~2 tablespoons (necessarily)
Sugar or honey

1 tablespoon (necessarily)

How to make
1. Both chicken breast and chicken thigh fillet are suitable for this dish. Cut the fillet into small pieces, put in a bowl and pour soy sauce. Stir and leave to marinate for half an hour.
2. We add starch to it, but not all - 3 tablespoons and stir so that all the pieces are starched.
3. Heat the pan well with 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and lay out the pieces of fillet. If you have a small pan, fry the fillet in several stages. We want the pieces of meat to be fried until golden brown and not stewed. Remove the baked fillet from the pan.
4. Add a little oil to the pan and add the bell pepper cut into pieces. The pieces are about the same size as the pieces of chicken fillet. Fry the peppers over high heat for a few minutes. Do not forget to stir.
5. Cut the pineapple pieces into the same pieces and put them in a pan with paprika. We stir and fry for another couple of minutes.
6. Add your favorite tomato sauce or ketchup and a little pineapple syrup. Stir and let it brew. Lets taste it. If the sauce is too sweet, add a little vinegar or lemon juice. If sour sugar or honey. Recall that the sauce should be sweet and sour.
7. Now put the previously baked fillet in the pan. Stir the contents of the pan and cover with a lid, reduce heat and simmer over low heat. The time depends on the degree of readiness of the baked fillet. If you cut into large pieces and did not have time to cook, then simmer for about 15 minutes. If the fillet is almost ready, about 5 minutes. When the fillet is ready and the sauce is liquid, add a spoonful of starch, stir and let the dish boil and immediately remove from heat.
