¼ cup sugar

¼ cup "lite" soy sauce

¼ cup unsweetened pineapple juice

¼ cup white distilled vinegar

2 cloves garlic, crushed

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with 3 Tbsp. water

4 green onions, sliced

Preparation:

Dredge chicken in flour and fry in oil over medium heat (in a wok or a skillet) until golden brown 
and crispy.

Drain excess oil.

Sprinkle cayenne over the chicken and keep warm on low heat.

Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine sauce ingredients (sugar, soy sauce, pineapple juice, 
vinegar, garlic, and ginger) and heat gently.

When sauce is smooth and sugar has dissolved, SLOWLY add cornstarch mixture and stir 
constantly until sauce has thickened to desired thickness.

Pour sauce in the wok and stir to coat chicken.
