# Steps:

01 - Whisk together the soy sauce with egg white. Coat the chicken bits and let it soak as you prep everything else.
02 - In one bowl, whisk sauce ingredients together. In another, blend the coating ingredients.
03 - Let chicken drip off extra marinade, then toss it in the coating until fully covered.
04 - In hot oil, cook chicken until crispy and golden. Scoop it out and set aside.
05 - Cook onion and peppers in the pan until they soften a bit. Pop in pineapple and warm it up.
06 - Pour in the sauce, let it bubble for 30-60 seconds. Toss chicken back in and enjoy.

# Helpful Notes:

01 - You might need to fry the chicken in more than one batch.
02 - Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through.
03 - It's best if eaten right away for crunchiness.
