Directions
Cheesy Pineapple Chicken is a variation of the traditional Filipino pineapple chicken recipe. Aside from the traditional used chicken and pineapple that are being used for this dish we also added some cheddar cheese to experiment with the taste and I must say, it tasted terrific!
In a cooking pan heat the olive oil and sauté garlic and onion until fragrant.
Add in the chicken and brown all sides of the chicken.
Add in the fish sauce and a few dashes of pepper.
Mix thoroughly and add in about 3/4 cup water, the pineapple syrup, the potato, and carrots then bring to a boil and simmer until the liquid is reduced to about half.
Now increase the heat a little, add in the milk, sugar, and pineapple and continue to cook until the vegetables are almost done. Keep stirring the mixture occasionally.
Add in the bell pepper and continue to cook until all the vegies are cooked.
Add in the cheese and continue to cook for another minute or until the cheese is melted and the sauce has thickened.
Adjust seasoning until you get the desired taste and serve hot.
