Easy Sweet and Sour Chicken

9 tbsp tomato ketchup

· 3 tbsp malt vinegar

· 4 tbsp dark muscovado sugar

· 2 garlic cloves , crushed

· 4 skinless and boneless chicken breasts, cut into chunks

· 1 small onion , roughly chopped

· 2 red peppers , seeded and cut into chunks

· 227g can pineapple pieces in juice, drained

· 100g sugar snap peas , roughly sliced

· handful salted, roasted cashew nuts, optional


In a bowl, put the ketchup, vinegar and sugar and mix well.

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Gently fry the onion in a little oil. After a minute or two, add the chicken. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, stirring now and again. Add the vegetables and cook for a minute and then pour the sauce over. Heat through for a few minutes, then serve.

We're having this tonight.

I also add water chestnuts. When I have some, I also add baby corn...
