This is a recipe that we got from my friend Angela, and it has become a favorite at our house! It does take some time, but it is well worth it.

Start cooking the rice, so it is ready when you are done. Cut the chicken into 1 inch cubes, then saute in oil with onion and garlic. In a separate pan, combine sugar and cornstarch, stir in water, then add oil, vinegar, and soy sauce. Cook the sauce until it becomes thick and clear, stirring frequently. Mix chicken, sauce, vegetables, and pineapple. Heat through. Serve over hot rice, and enjoy!
