Steps:
- To a medium saucepan, add all ingredients except water and cornstarch, whisk to combine, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- To a small bowl, add the water, cornstarch, and stir to combine.
- Add the water and cornstarch mixture to saucepan, reduce heat to low, and allow sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes while you make the chicken; whisk intermittently.
- To a large ziptop bag, add the chicken, cornstarch, salt and pepper to taste, seal, and shake to coat chicken evenly.
- To a large skillet, add 3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until chicken has cooked through. Stir and flip intermittently to ensure even cooking. If skillet seems dry while cooking, add an additional tablespoon or two of oil as necessary.
- After chicken has cooked though, reduce heat to low, add the sauce, stir to coat evenly, and allow it to simmer for a minute or two.
- Optionally garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and serve immediately.

- Mix pineapple juice, barbeque sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic together in a small bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup for basting.

- Meanwhile, clean out the frying pan and bring an inch or so of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the beans and carrots and cook until just tender. Drain and set aside. While vegetables are cooking, mix together all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. (*Alternately, you could cook the vegetables in a covered bowl in the microwave, if you prefer).
- Heat a bit of oil over medium heat in the frying pan. Add the onion and red pepper and cook, stirring, until just softened. Add the sauce, vegetables and cooked chicken to the pan. Allow to simmer, stirring regularly, until sauce thickens.
