Chicken Waikiki Beach

6 halved boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or your parts of choice)
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup oil or shortening
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Sauce:
1 can sliced pineapple
1 cup sugar
2 TBSP cornstarch
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 TBSP soy sauce
1/4 tsp ginger
1 chicken bouillon cube
1 large green pepper (sliced)

Method:
Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Coat chicken with flour. Heat oil in large skillet. Add chicken, and brown on all sides. Remove as browned to a shallow roasting pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Make sauce: Drain pineapple, pouring syrup into 2 cup measure. Add water to make 1 1/4 cups. In medium saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, pineapple syrup, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, and bouillon cube.

Bring to boil, stirring constantly. Boil 2 minutes. Pour over chicken. Bake, uncovered, 30 minutes. Add pineapple slices and green pepper. Bake 30 minutes longer, or until chicken is tender.

Serve with fluffy white rice.
