No Added Sugar
Typically a sweet and sour sauce is sugar laden. Instead, we’ve made this sauce without any added sugar. It is sweetened with fresh squeezed orange juice, and then the recipe also has fresh pineapple in it which adds some natural sweetness. It’s the perfect combo of savory and sweet that you can feel good about feeding your whole family!
Healthier + Easier
We love it when healthier really also means easier! This healthy sweet and sour chicken is also really easy to make and comes together in about 30 minutes. Once you prep the chicken and get it cooking on the stove, prep the rest of your veggies and pineapple and then put it all together. Who doesn’t love a meal that hits the spot like takeout and is a breeze to make?! Am I right?!
Keep It Whole30
You can make this healthy sweet and sour chicken a complete meal as is or you can add a side of cauliflower or white rice to it like we did. Make sure to stick with cauliflower rice to keep it Whole30 if that is your aim. It’s also quite satisfying as is – there is a combo of veggies, textures and flavors that make it feel satisfying!
