Place the chicken in the heated pan and cook until chicken is fully cooked and golden brown.
Turn chicken often to keep from burning.
When complete place on a paper towel to drain and set aside.
Cook rice as directed, substituting Star Butter Flavored Olive Oil for the butter.
For the Peppers, Onions & Pineapples
Slice peppers into strips.
Cut the onion in half and slice each half into thin strips.
Sauté the peppers and onions in the Star Butter Flavored Olive Oil while adding the season salt.
After 5 min add the pineapple (be sure to save the juice to the side) and cook all until peppers and onions are tender.
Use the pineapple juice to deglaze the pan with the contents in it.
Bring the juice to a boil.
Mix the corn starch or arrowroot with the cold water until it is smooth.
Gradually add the corn starch or arrowroot mixture until the sauce begins to thicken.
Cover and turn the heat off, let sit for a couple of minutes for the flavors to meld.
