Preparation

Step 1

1. In large container, mix chicken, 1 tbsp. garlic, Adobo and ginger. Cover and set in refrigerator to marinate at least 1 hour, and up to 12 hours. Bring to room temperature about 30 minutes before cooking.

2. Working in batches, dip chicken in bowl of beaten eggs, letting excess eggs drip back into bowl. Dredge with cornstarch, patting off excess. Heat oil in 12" skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken. Cook, flipping occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 7 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken to paper towel-lined plate to drain.

3. In same skillet saucepan, add onions, bell peppers, pimientos and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 2-3 minutes.

4. Add tomato paste, pineapple jam, white cooking wine, pimientos and pineapple chunks; bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Return chicken to skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until completely coated in sauce, about 5 minutes more. Sprinkle in nuts. Serve with white rice.
