This pineapple chicken recipe I acquired from the recipe section of a newspaper many moons ago. It’s one of the few recipes that I have obtained and haven’t changed the ingredients. I really like the taste of this recipe just the way it is.
I have included another recipe, which I call Hawaiian chicken. For a while I was on a sweet and sour craze I was putting this sauce on everything. Either of these sauces goes great with rice or oriental noodles.
