Directions:
Cook the chicken according to the package and when done, cut into bite-size pieces. To make the sauce, pour the water, pineapple juice, orange juice, vinegar, soy sauce, orange zest, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, green onion and red pepper flakes into a sauce pan. I add a couple of drops of sesame oil for a nutty flavor. Bring to a boil. Mix the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water into a paste and add immediately to the sauce. Reduce heat to medium low for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens. Add the chicken pieces. Serve over rice.
