Health Benefits of this Dish  

The variety of ingredients in this dish boasts a range of health benefits in addition to being delicious. 

Pineapple has many antioxidants and nutrients, and they aid digestion and boost immunity. Its properties promote healing, bone health, and pain relief. 

Sesame oil has many antioxidants and benefits from fatty acids like omega 3, omega 6, and omega 9 fatty acids. One study found that sesame oil decreased stress and cortisol levels. Botanicals infused into the sesame oil also provide additional therapeutic value as well as enhance the flavor. 

For this recipe, choose flower high in terpenes like limonene that carry citrusy notes and scents to accentuate the pineapple flavor base. 

Decarbing Your Flower 

Before you begin making the dish, you’ll need to decarb and infuse your herb. Decarboxylating the raw flower before the infusion step activates the botanical compounds and turns on their psychoactive effects. Without decarbing flower, you wouldn’t feel any differently after eating it. 

If you don’t have a LĒVO yet (and why not?) but still want to make this yummy recipe, you can find those oven decarbing and stovetop infusing instructions here.

You’ll only need 2 tablespoons of infused oil to make this recipe. 

A commonly used herb to oil ratio in the LĒVO calls for 7-14 grams of flower to 1-2 cups of oil. Set aside 2 tablespoons of infused oil for the recipe, and then store the extra oil in a dark, labeled jar in the refrigerator- ready for your next recipe.

Directions

Preparing the Pineapple Bowls

1. Slice the pineapples in half. Leave the stems intact to give this dish a visual flair.

2. Run a knife along the edge of the pineapple to cut into the fruit flesh. Then make grid-like cuts to create roughly 1-inch cubes.
3. Scoop out the chunks with a spoon into a bowl. Set them aside for garnish. You can also use it as dessert.
4. Set aside 1 tablespoon of pineapple juice for sauce.

Preparing the Sauce

1. Whisk the soy sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, garlic, ginger, and infused sesame oil together in a large bowl.

2. Whisk together cornstarch and water, then stir into sauce.

3. Mix the sauce with infused sesame oil

Preparing and Cooking the Chicken

1. Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Place the seasoned chicken in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until golden brown, stirring as needed. Turn the chicken pieces over after 3 minutes. Cook until golden on the second side for 3 minutes more.

3. Pour sauce over chicken and simmer for about 8-10 minutes. Make sure the sauce thickens and the chicken is thoroughly cooked.

Preparing the Bowls
