Serves 4
This recipe cooks the chicken using the Sous Vide method but then finishes it by frying it like a traditional sweet and sour chicken dish. By cooking the chicken Sous Vide you can guarantee that meat will be cooked through. Fresh pineapple adds a punch of flavor that you would not get from using canned. Chili flakes can be added to the sauce if some heat is desired.
