Pineapple Sesame Chicken

Pineapple Sesame Chicken


650 g boneless, skinless chicken, cut to bite-sized pieces
250 g pineapple, cubed
40 g sesame seeds
1 egg
polenta
1 large yellow pepper
1 Tbsp brown sugar
350 ml lite soy sauce
1 Tbsp corn starch
1 large clove garlic, finely chopped


On a very little oil, fry sesame seeds. Reserve for later. Beat egg, soak chicken in it and then, coat the chicken with polenta.

Heat some oil in wok, fry garlic until lite brown, then add chicken. Stir fry until chicken is almost done. Take out on a plate, and use wok to fry pineapple until it's soft. Toss back chicken, sesame, soy sauce, pepper and stir fry some more.

Thicken the sauce with corn starch dissolved in 1 Tbsp water.

  9. Marija, this looks delicious! I am going to try it sometime soon. One question. Is there any substitute for polenta? I am not quite familiar with this ingredient, and was wondering if I can use something I have in my pantry instead. Please advise:)

  10. Hi Farida!
    You can use corn flour, but I guess you can make it without the egg and flour part.
