2 eggs, beaten
1 large onion, cut into 2 inch chunks
1 large bell pepper, cut into 2 inch chunks
1 can crushed pineapple drained

¾ cup flour
¾ cup cornstarch

Sauce:
1 ½ cup water
½ cup ketchup
¾ cup sugar
2 chicken bullion cubes
1 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp cornstarch

Dip chicken pieces in egg then shake in flour mix (in small batches) to coat. Meanwhile, heat 2-3 Tbsp oil in large skillet over med-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook thoroughly, turning occasionally. When chicken is done, remove from pan. Add more oil and saute onion and pepper until tender. Add pineapple and heat through. Whisk all sauce ingredients together in separate bowl. When smooth add to vegetables in pan. Bring sauce to a boil and heat until thickened. Serve chicken over rice and spoon on sauce.
