I'm basically the normal, over-worked, over-planned current parent so I realize what a battle it is to get the whole family around the table to share a feast. Yet, brace yourself for what I'm about to tell you, it merits the exertion since it's frequently the main time in the day when I can interface with my children without the diversion of web based life, carpools, and so forth.
So when our companions at Tessemae's connected and requested that we make a supper that the entire family would appreciate TOGETHER, I seized the opportunity to share this Skillet Sweet and Sour Chicken utilizing their Whole30-endorsed Organic Ketchup. Despite a quick paced and full life, family dinners are a non-debatable for me.
Growing up a "lock key child" with separated from guardians, I figured out how to cook at an extremely youthful age so I could help my single-parent father eat on the table for our family consistently in light of the fact that it was a non-debatable for him too. The time my sibling and I went through with our father preparing meals and eating together is something we both appreciate right up 'til the present time.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. While the skillet heats up, place chicken chunks in a bowl and toss with 1/2 Tbsp. arrowroot starch, salt, and pepper.

- While the veggies are cooking, combine ketchup, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and dried ginger. In a separate bowl, whisk 1 Tbsp. arrowroot starch into pineapple juice, then whisk this into the ketchup mixture to make the sauce.
- When veggies are crisp-tender, add chicken and pineapple chunks to the pan. Add sauce and cook, stirring, 1-2 minutes or until sauce thickens.
