Method

  1. 1

    Cut chicken into chunks and season lightly. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a wok over a high heat and stir-fry chicken for 6–7 minutes until cooked. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix ketchup, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce and the pineapple juice from the tin to make the sweet and sour sauce.

  3. 3

    Pour the sauce into the wok, bring to a simmer for 2 minutes, then add the pineapple chunks and return the chicken. Stir to coat.

  4. 4

    In a separate frying pan, heat 1 tbsp oil and stir-fry the cooked rice for 2 minutes. Push to one side, scramble in the eggs, then mix everything together.

  5. 5

    Serve the sweet and sour chicken alongside the egg fried rice.
