Combine tender pieces of chicken with pineapple, scallions and sweet peppers and an Asian-inspired sauce for a delicious weeknight dinner. Garlic, ginger, five-spice powder, and soy sauce bring a tangy flavor to the sweetness of the pineapple. Five-spice powder is an Asian seasoning that combines a variety of flavors that includes sweet, sour, bitter and salty. It makes an excellent marinade or rub. This entire dish cooks in a single pan, making clean-up easy. Make the meal complete by serving the stir-fry with brown rice.
