1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
Preparation:
1. Prep the Chicken: In a shallow dish, combine flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken pieces in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
2. Create the Coating: In a separate shallow dish, beat the eggs. In a third dish, combine panko breadcrumbs. Dip each floured chicken piece into the egg mixture, then coat with breadcrumbs.
3. Fry the Chicken: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
4. Prepare the Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine pineapple chunks, red bell pepper, green onion, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens.
5. Combine and Serve: Add the fried chicken pieces to the sauce and toss to coat. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh cilantro.
