Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes;
- 1 cup tapioca starch;
- ½ cup almond flour;
- 3 eggs (beaten)
- 1 cup pineapple (cut into chunks)
- ½ cup fresh pineapple juice
- 1 cup bell pepper (chopped)
- 1 cup onion (chopped)
- 3 tbsp. honey (optional)
- 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 2 green onions (thinly sliced)
- ¼ cup chicken stock
- ½ cup coconut oil
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instruction
- In a bowl, combine the almond flour and the tapioca starch and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Dip each chicken cube in the beaten eggs, then coat with the tapioca mixture.
- Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet placed over medium-high heat.
- Cook the chicken until browned on all sides (you might want to work in batches).
- Set the chicken aside and clean the skillet.
- Heat some coconut oil again over medium heat, add the bell pepper and onion, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the pineapple chunks, pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, chicken stock, honey (if using), and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce slightly reduces about 5-8 minutes. If you’re looking for a thicker sauce, you can add some tapioca starch.
- Return the chicken to the skillet. Mix everything well and let it all heat up for about 5 minutes.
- Serve warm with green onions sprinkled on top.
