Ingredients - Serves 4

Let's Get Started

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Add the pineapple juice, coconut milk, and sugar to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add this to the skillet and stir to combine.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer in the sauce for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  7. Serve the chicken with the sauce poured over the top.
