Sweet and Sour Chicken

SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN

1 can pineapple chunks, drained
1 large onion, chopped
1 Tbsp oil
1 1/4 C water
2 C carrots, sliced lengthwise into sticks
3 chicken bouillon cubes
1/4 C brown sugar
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 C ketchup
2 Tbsp vinegar
1 Tbsp soy sauce
2 C chicken, diced and cooked
1 C green pepper, sliced in strips

Saute onion in oil.  Add water, carrots and bouillon cubes.  Cover and simmer for about 5 minutes.  Combine sugar, cornstarch and ginger.  Add ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce and stir into vegetables.  Cook mixture until clear and thick.  Add chicken, pepper and pineapple.  Simmer for 5 more minutes.

Okay, sometimes I just make this and leave the chicken out completely.  Just fill it up with peppers and it is so good over rice.  I don't even miss the chicken but my Asian side does protest the whole time I do it!
