Method

  1. Cut the chicken breast into chunks. Toss with salt, egg and cornstarch until each piece is a rough ball.
  2. Heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Pan-fry the chicken balls until golden and cooked through, then set aside.
  3. Stir-fry onion and red pepper. Add ketchup, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and canned pineapple with a splash of the syrup.
  4. Simmer until glossy. Return the chicken balls and toss. Serve.
