Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 1 pineapple
  • 400 g chicken breast fillet(s)
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 40 ml water
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 50 ml soy sauce
  • 4 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 2 servings of rice

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

Cut the pineapple in half, leaving the core intact. Hollow out the inside, working carefully as the halves will later serve as plates. Dice the pineapple flesh. Dice the chicken breast fillets and place them in a bowl. Add cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the water and mix well. Heat a large pan with a little oil and fry the chicken until golden brown. Then add about 2/3 of the reserved pineapple to the pan and fry. Add the honey, then the soy sauce and the sweet chili sauce and simmer for about 10 minutes. Prepare the rice according to the package instructions. Then fill the hollowed-out pineapple with the chicken mixture and rice, garnish with sesame seeds and serve.
