2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon liquid honey

Juice of 1/2 lime or lemon
You will also need:
2 tablespoons olive oil (I use extra virgin olive oil)
1 large chili pepper
Chives (you can skip it if you want)
Preparation
Cut chicken into strips, put into a bowl, add the marinade ingredients: a pinch of salt, paprika, grated garlic, lemon juice, ginger. Mix and allow to stand for half an hour (or longer - until the meat reach room temperature).
* In The second bowl: put the pieces of peeled pineapple and add the remaining marinade ingredients: soy sauce, honey, sugar, rice vinegar, lime juice. Mix and set aside for half an hour.
I do mine in the Wok! Pour 1 tablespoon of oil or olive oil, heat, add the chicken pieces from the marinade and fry for about 3 - 4 minutes stirring occasionally. At the end of cooking add the chopped fresh chili and chives cut into 4 cm pieces or chopped spring onions. Remove everything from the wok and place on a plate.
Put pineapple in the wok, without the marinade (do not pour marinade!), Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or oil and fry for about 2 - 3 minutes.
Pour the marinade, add chicken, keep still on fire for a moment to the flavors merged.
