Steps:
- Mix the cornstarch and ginger powder in a large, ziploc bag and then add the chicken. Seal and shake until the chicken is coated.
- Heat a wok or large frying pan on medium-high or high heat until a splash of water sizzles when it hits the pan.
- Add 2 Tablespoons of avocado oil and the chicken, carefully, to the hot pan.
- Working in batches, brown the chicken on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. They do not need to be cooked all the way through. Do not overcrowd the pan. The chicken should be in a single layer or they will not brown.
- Once browned, remove the chicken from the pan and place on a plate to wait. It will be added to the vegetables again later.
- Reheat the pan (if necessary) and add the remaining avocado oil, frozen vegetables and pineapple. Saute until the vegetables begin to soften, approximately 3-5 minutes (they will be seared on the outside but a fork will begin to pass through).
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the chicken, pineapple juice and chili sauce into the pan with the vegetables. Stir until well mixed.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the center of the chicken reaches 165 degrees fahrenheit (approximately 3-5 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces).
- Serve hot over steamed rice and garnish with green onions (optional).
