This
is a very simple recipe that uses easy-to-find ingredients. Serve with some
steamed vegetables for a complete meal. Use cubes of pork or even shrimp
instead of the chicken. Ingredients :
1
tablespoon olive oil
1
pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2
teaspoons garlic-herb seasoning blend
1
can (14-1/2 ounces) fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1
can (8 ounces) unsweetened pineapple chunks
1/4
cup barbecue sauce
Hot
cooked rice
Fresh
cilantro leaves, optional
In
a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and
seasoning; saute until chicken is lightly browned and no longer pink, about 5
minutes. Add tomatoes, pineapple and barbecue sauce. Bring to a boil; cook and
stir until flavors are blended and chicken is cooked through, 5-7 minutes.
Serve with rice and, if desired, cilantro.
