Hawaiian Chicken

I hope I'm not stealing anyone color :)
We ate this when we were over at a friend's house in Oklahoma. We LOVE it!

Sauce:
1 can sliced pineapple (drained, use juice plus enough water for 1 ½ cups)--just use the juice for the sauce and save the actual pineapple slices until the last step.
½ cup honey
2 tbsp cornstarch
½ cup cider vinegar
1 tbsp soy sauce
½ tsp ginger
1 chicken bouillon cube (I use more, probably 2 cubes, just go by how salty you like things.)
These amounts make more sauce than we've ever needed, but whenever I cut the recipe in half it doesn't taste as good for some reason. Could just be in my head :)

Bring all those ingredients to a boil in a saucepan. Boil for a good minute (longer won't hurt it).

Flour and salt 4+ chicken breasts, brown in hot oil. (We totally skip this step and just leave the chicken plain. Less fat and the taste isn't much different in the end)

Place chicken in a casserole dish, pour sauce over and bake uncovered 30 minutes at 350°

Add:
1 bell pepper, sliced into strips
1 can sliced pineapple

Bake 30 minutes longer.
Serve over rice.

no you're cool. No one has claimed that color yet!

That sounds like a good recipe, I'll have to try it out.
