Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, minced garlic, pepper, and sugar to create the marinade.
Place the chicken thighs in the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to an hour.
In a large pan or pot, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken pieces (reserving the marinade) to the pan. Cook chicken on both sides until golden brown. About 3-5 minutes.
Pour in the reserved marinade and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pan. Let it cook for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked. Stir occasionally.
Once the chicken is cooked, add the pineapple chunks (including half the juice) to the pan. Simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the pineapple to infuse its flavor.
In a small bowl combine the water and corn starch to make a slurry. Stir into the chicken and pineapple sauce and allow the sauce to thicken for about 2-3 minutes. Once thickened remove from the heat. Garnish with green onion and serve hot over white rice.
