Steps:
- Slice boneless chicken into cubes.
- Slices onions into cubes.
- Heat oil and add onions and cook on medium heat until onions soften and become golden. Then add chopped garlic and wait until it browns. Add garlic after onions, as garlic tends to burn quicker than onions.
- Add chicken to garlic and let it cook. After 5 minutes, add salt and pepper. Chicken will release its water. Let it cook until almost all the water is gone.
- Slice Red Pepper into cubes and the green chillies at an angle. Add them to the chicken and let it all cook until the vegetables soften a little.
- Add the Aroy-D sweet chilli Sauce.
- Cut slices of pineapple into quarters, so each slice gives you four pieces. And add the whole can worth of pineapple into the chicken dish.
- If you'd like a little bit more gravy, dissolve the flour in 1 cup water, and stir leaving no lumps. Then add it to the chicken.
- Lastly, if you'd like a little bit more spice, you can add a teaspoons of Sriracha hot sauce.

CHINESE PINEAPPLE CHICKEN WITH CASHEW NUTS, GINGER, SPRING ONION
This is sure to satisfy all your cravings for Chinese food, it's a great recipe. Be brave with the ginger, it mellows out as it cooks and is helped along by the sweetness of the dish. The cashew nuts are optional but I am yet to make it without them as I love their crunchy texture and creamy taste. Be sure to serve it with plenty of white fluffy rice. Quicker than waiting for takeout. UPDATE - I HAVE DECREASED THE AMOUNT OF WATER USED IN THE SAUCE FROM 1/2PT TO 1/4 PINT BUT I FIND IT DOES TEND TO GET A BIT TOO THICK AND NEEDS A DROP OR 2 MORE. USE YOUR SENSES, IF YOU THINK IT NEEDS IT THEN ADD IT! ADDING FROZEN VEGGIES WILL WATER THE SAUCE DOWN CONSIDERABLY. THIS PARTICULAR RECIPE DOES NOT ADHERE MUCH TO TWEAKING AND I SUGGEST YOU TRY IT AS STATED BELOW FIRST. THANK YOU

- Fry the chicken in the oil with the onion and ginger for 5 minutes over a medium high heat.
- Add the green pepper and the pineapple chunks and fry for another 5 minutes adding half of the spring onions after 2 minutes.
- Add the crushed garlic and the cashew nuts, fry for 2 minutes then pour over the sauce and bring to the boil.
- After a minute or 2, the sauce should thicken and stick to the chicken. It it looks too thick, add some water, little by little until desired consistency is acheived.
