PERUVIAN PINEAPPLE CHICKEN (POLLO A LA PINA)

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cumin together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken medallions and toss to evenly coat. Set aside to marinate.
• Combine pineapple chunks, syrup, and sugar in a medium pot over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Boil until sugar has dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the stove, transfer pineapple chunks to a bowl, and leave syrup in the pot.
• Place potato starch in a bowl. Dredge marinated chicken medallions in potato starch; shake off excess.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, working in batches and adding more oil if necessary, and fry until golden brown and crunchy, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Heat remaining 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a wok. Add tomato paste; cook and stir until paste darkens, being careful it does not burn. Add bell pepper and cook until slightly softened but still crispy, 1 to 2 minutes. Mix in chicken medallions and pineapple chunks. Slowly mix in some of the syrup until mixture is lightly glazed; reserve remaining syrup for another use. Sprinkle with green onions.

POLLO CON PIñA

Steps:

• Escurre la piña y reserva el jugo. Disuelve la maicena en 2 cdas. del jugo que reservaste; reserva el resto del jugo para utilizar luego. Dale vueltas al pollo de vez en cuando mientras lo cocinas en una olla tipo Dutch oven o en una sartén grande a fuego medio durante 5 min. o hasta que se dore de forma pareja. Incorpora el aderezo, el resto del jugo de piña, los trozos de piña, el azúcar, los clavos, el palito de canela y las hojas de laurel. Pon la tapa; cocina el pollo 20 min. a fuego medio-bajo o hasta que esté cocido (165ºF).
• Cocina el tocino mientras tanto en una sartén mediana hasta que esté crujiente; escúrrelo. Ponlo de nuevo en la sartén. Agrega el jamón, las cebollas y el ajo y revuelve las cebollas con frecuencia mientras las cocinas de 5 a 8 min. o hasta que estén bien doraditas.
• Agrega la maicena a la mezcla de pollo; cocina la salsa y revuélvela 1 min. o hasta que espese un poco. Deshazte de los clavos, del palito de canela y de las hojas de laurel. Reserva 1/2 taza de la mezcla de tocino. Agrega el resto de la mezcla de pollo; mézclala bien. Sirve el platillo con la mezcla de tocino que reservaste y con el perejil.
