We're having Sweet 'n Sour chicken over rice. Not budgeted but very affordable.
4 skinless/boneless chicken breast
1-2 jars of Le Choy Sweet 'n Sour sauce
1 can of pineapples in natural juice drained
1 green or red pepper (optional)
1 medium size onion chopped in rather large pieces
1 tablespoon of veg oil or any cooking oil you prefer
salt & peper
1-2 bags of boil 'a bag rice
In a large frying pan or wok add 1 tbls of oil and heat
While oil is heating salt & peper your washed chicken to taste and cut into chunks
Add chicken to oil and cook til the chicken is no longer pink inside and outside is golden brown
Remove chicken from pan and place on a paper towel and rinse frying pan and wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Once pan is clean add chicken back to pan and pour Sweet 'n Sour sauce over chicken and place top on pan and let simmer.
While chicken and sauce is simmering boil water for rice
Once water is boiling add bag(s) of rice and cook for alotted time
While rice is cooking add can of pineapples to the chicken for the last few minutes of cooking time (5-10)
When rice is cooked drain & empty bag(s) of rice to a serving bowl add chicken to another serving bowl or you may wish to use the same bowl used for the rice.
Serve and enjoy!
