Chicken Pineapple Stir- Fry

When I say to my family "Another new recipe!" they are very apprehensive and uneasy until they actually take that first bite. However, this combination of home made sauce and vegetables burst forth a gusto flavor they loved. I reluctantly doubled the sauce so it would soak into the rice below and I was so glad I did. The strange combination of ingredients, with "2" tablespoons of minced garlic, I just couldn't see how it could taste good. But wait, it was REALLY, REALLY gratifying! Now I am concerned that they enjoyed it so much they will not want to go back to package kind! Thank you for sharing this recipe; the pineapple was an awsome addition!

This is so easy and sinfully delicious. I used low sodium soy sauce, and also used 2 fresh green and red peppers, cut into 1 inch square in place of the frozen stir-fry vegetables (personal choice). Excellent. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

I used veg broth to cook the rice in and kept out just enough to saute the chicken in instead of oil. And used lite soy sauce. Very good and quick and easy to fix. My family loved it!

This has just an excellent flavor. We used red and green pepper strips in it and everyone loved it. The pineapple is wonderful with the sauce.

It was okay. I would not use frozen vegetables next time. They just don't do the dish justice. I would also add more pineapple juice next time. The flavor of the sauce wasn't distinctive enough and was a little underwhelming.

I'd say this was 5 stars the way I made it but there's no way making this with frozen mixed vegetables would be 5 stars. I followed this recipe closely and tripled the minced garlic. I cut up a yellow pepper, broccoli, red onion and used a can of sliced water chestnuts. This was GOOD! My husband added sriracha to his, but I sauteed it with crushed red peppers and it had the perfect amount of kick with that. I also used boneless/skinless chicken thighs rather than breasts. Will definitely make again!

I let the chicken marinate for about a half hour. I made this with pineapple, asparagus, cherry tomatoes and carrots over a bed of brown rice. I had to steam the asparagus and carrots first. I also used tomato paste instead of ketchup and upped the ginger. Very delicious!!! I also made fresh ginger tea to go with it. Absolutely a great recipe!

Awesome Stir-Fry! I used most of a 20oz can of pineapple, 2 tsp fresh ginger and doubled the sauce. I added about 2/3 of the sauce per the recipe and then mixed in an additional 2 tsp (total of 4 tsp) of cornstarch into the remaining 1/3, adding it at the end to thicken it to the perfect consistency. Sooo good, Thanks MizzNezz UPDATE: I tried using 3 tablespoons of sugar instead of 4 (I double the sauce) bc hubby thought it was a little sweet. But I really think it needs the full 4 tbs! It just doesn't cut it with 3. If you're concerned about it being too sweet, make sure you're using the pineapple packed in 100% pineapple juice and NOT in sugar - otherwise it could definitely get too sweet.

I really liked this dish! I love stir fry and this one has a great flavor to it - very unique! I used fresh veggies so it took me a little longer but results were fantastic - also used a less than the whole can of pinapple and chopped it into smaller bits. We will use this one again and again!

We loved it! It is a strange combination of ingredients, but it tasted wonderful! I combined it with the Chinese Fried Rice recipe (with a couple of modifications to that). Will definitely be making it again. Thanks!

This was an excellent dish. My whole family loved it. I made one change to it and that was I added about 2Tbs of brown sugar when I added the pineapples and sauce. It gave it a great taste.

Thanks for sharing this recipe. My three sons, 5, 8 and 13 loved this. It went together quickly and the sauce was very tasty - but not too spicy for the little guy. This time I went exactly by the recipe, but can see that this will be adaptable to other veggies fresh or frozen. It looked great as well. This will be on rotation at our house for a while.

Great Asian meal. I used all fresh vegetables (onion, red pepper, broccoli, zucchini) so cooked them a little longer but this was great. Will double the sauce next time as we love sauce. Served over rice.

This got two thumbs up and two thumbs sideways (indicating "like it, don't love it") from my family. That's good enough for me to repeat it. S-I-L said it tasted like a really good Chinese dish. Hmm. Not sure how I feel about that but it'll work. :) And for what it's worth, I liked it a lot. I did add a bit more corn starch to thicken it up some more.

I made this tonight for dinner and it was yummy!! I used 1 cup of pineapple juice and adjusted the other ingredients to the sauce accordingly. I used boneless/skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts. I also used carrots, onions, broccoli, and sugar snap peas in place of the bag of stir fry veggies. It gave us a huge meal with lots of veggies. It was great! Will definitely make again!

Pretty much amazing and super easy! Instead of using the stir fry veggies, I used Carrots, Broc, and onions. Its what we had on hand.Also added some red pepper flakes. Turned out great. Full of Flavor. Hubby took left overs the next day and some boys in his shop said it smelt great! Will for sure be making again!

All i can say is "Wow!" This recipe was super easy and delicious! My 5yo and 11yo thought it was great and my husband went for seconds! This is by far my favorite stir fry recipe and i will be making again! However, I did read the reviews and made a few minor adjustments. I am a health conscientious person so i used low-sodium soy sauce and i had two pounds of chicken so i triple the sauce recipe and it came out perfectly proportioned (meat/veggies to sauce). The sauce was a little thin though so i added about 1 tsp of corn starch while cooking to thicken it up! Thanks for sharing!
