Meanwhile, spray a wok or large frying pan with the cooking spray. Heat until very hot, then add the chicken and stir-fry for 5 minutes until well browned, then remove from the pan and set aside. You may need to do this in two batches. Spray the wok again, then add most of the spring onions, pepper and pineapple, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.

Reduce the heat, add the chilli, ginger and five spice powder, and stir fry for 1-2 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan and add the soy sauce. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Spoon the rice into 4 warmed bowls, top with the stir-fry and garnish with the remaining spring onions to serve.
