Ingredients

·        2 chicken breasts, cut

·        2½ tbsp brown sugar

·        2 tsp garlic minced

·        3 tbsp ketchup

·        ½ tsp Spanish paprika

·        1 tbsp oyster sauce

·        ½ tsp salt

·        ½ tsp pepper

·        ½ cup pineapple juice

·        2 tbsp vegetable oil for pan frying the chicken

Instructions

Marinating the Chicken

1.              In a plastic food storage container with a lid, mix together all of the ingredients, except the oil which should be reserved for pan frying.

2.              Gently mix together and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

Cooking the Chicken

1.              Heat the cooking pan on the stovetop. Pour the marinated chicken along with the sauce into the pan and bring it to a boil.

2.              Once the sauce is fully evaporated, add the vegetable oil to the chicken to finish it by pan frying it.

3.              Over low heat, pan fry the chicken by turning it so that it is slightly browned and caramelized.

4.              Add a pinch of paprika or tablespoon of ketchup and give the ingredients a stir before turning off the heat.

5.              Serve with rice and an egg and enjoy!  (I did not serve with the egg – a salad works instead of rice to keep carbs down)
