INGREDIENTS

  • Protein

    • 🍗 3/4 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs

  • Thickener

    • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • Vegetables

    • 🧅 1/3 cup onion chunks

  • Fruit

    • 🍍 1/3 cup pineapple chunks

  • Sauce

    • 🍅 1/3 cup ketchup
    • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
    • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
    • 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
    • 🧄 1 large clove garlic, minced
    • 1/2 teaspoon ginger paste

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or spray with cooking spray.

2

Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel, cut into 1-inch chunks, and add to the dish. Sprinkle with cornstarch, and toss until chicken is coated. Stir in onions, pineapple, and other vegetables.

3

Add ketchup, rice vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger paste to a small bowl. Whisk until well combined and stir into the chicken mixture.

4

Bake until chicken is no longer pink at the center and juices run clear, approximately 14 to 17 minutes, stirring halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should read 165°F (74°C).

5

If the sauce is too thick, stir in a splash of water to thin it out until reaching desired consistency. Serve garnished with green onion slices.
