Piletina s ananasom

 
Treba vam samo pola sata za ovo senzacionalno jelo koje vas nece ostaviti ravnodusnim. Podjseca me na prekrasno putovanje na Tajland, na koje sam isla s muzem prosle godine. Slatko - kiselkasti sos koji obavija komade piletine i ananasa odusevit ce sve za stolom. Garantujem! 
 
Sastojci
 
1/2 kilograma pilecih prsa (isijecite na kocke) 
1 solja ananasa isjecenog na kocke 
1 crvena paprika isjecena na kocke 
1 kasika protisnutog bijelog luka 
1 kasika protisnutog djumbira 
1 solja temeljca (najbolje pileceg) 
1/4 solje soja sosa (koristila sam pola od ove kolicine obicnog soja sosa a pola slatkog soja sosa. Sasvim je u redu ukoliko koristite obicni soja sos.)
3 kasike Hoisin sosa 
3 kasike braon secera 
2 kasike kukuruznog (ili drugog) skroba 
so i biber 
 
Postupak 
 
Zagrijte ulje na srednje jakoj vatri.
 
Piletinu posolite i pobiberite te preprzite, povremeno mijesajuci. Kocke piletine dinstajte 6 - 7 minuta prije nego nastavite s otalim koracima.

Dodajte crvenu papriku i ananas, oboje isjeceno na kocke. Dinstajte dodatnih  cc 4 minute. 

Za to vrijeme protisnite bijeli luk i djumbir. Kada ih dodate, dovoljno je da samo sve lijepo zajedno promijesati prije nego dodate sos. 

Najbolje je da ga pripremite prije nego sto pocnete dinstati piletinu. 

U jednu zdjelu sastavite temeljac, Hoisin sos, soja sos i secer. Dobro promijesajte i izlijte u tavu. Pustite da zavri. 
 
Rastopite dvije kasike kukuruznog ili drugog skroba s dvije kasike vode i dodajte u tavu kako bi sos postigao zeljenu gustocu. 

To ce uzeti dodatne 2 minute maksimalno. 
 
Posluzite s kuhanom rizom.
