I used 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts and cut them into slightly larger than bite-size chunks. I sauteed the chicken in 2 teaspoons of canola oil for 10 minutes, then added the pineapple. I bought one of those peeled, cored fresh pineapples and used not quite half of it. I cut the pineapple into chunks and sauteed it with the chicken for about 5 minutes. Then I added the sauce and turned up the heat and cooked until it thickened. (Which it actually did in about 2 minutes. I was born with a defective thickening gene so it's always a surprise when a sauce I make actually thickens.) It was unbelievably good.

Variations I'm thinking about trying:

- Substitute pineapple juice for the water and cut back on - or eliminate - the brown sugar. This will increase the amount of fructose so be cautious.

- Throw in a handful of cashews when I add the pineapple.

- Saute a little onion and/or green peppers with the chicken.

- All of the above.
