- 1 tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil

Method
- STEP 1Score the surface of the chicken, and then mix it in a large bowl with the contents of the packet, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar and olive oil. Leave to marinade for minimum 2 hours, ideally 24 hours. The longer the better.
- STEP 2Heat a splash of oil in a deep frying pan and fry the onion until soft. Then add the chicken and cook for 3 minutes on each side. Add the rest of the marinade and the tomato puree, orange juice and the juice from the pineapple but not the chunks. Bring to the boil.
- STEP 3Cover the pan and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, adding the pineapple chunks for the last 5 minutes and ensuring the chicken is cooked through. Serve with rice.
