Serving

2 tbsp oil
6 -8 chicken pieces
salt and pepper
1 large onion, chopped
2 tbsp fresh minced garlic (or to taste)
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2 medium carrots, peeled and coarsley chopped
3/4 cup ketchup
1 cup pineapple juice
2 tbsp vinegar (can use 3 tablespoons)
1/3 cup brown sugar (can use more to taste)
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/4-1/2 tsp ground ginger powder
1 cup apricot jam or 1 cup jelly
1 (16 oz) can pineapple tidbits, drained

Directions:

Set oven to 400 degrees.

Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels then season with salt and pepper.

To the same skillet (adding in more butter and/or oil if needed) add onion, garlic, bell pepper and carrots, saute for about 5 minutes, scraping any browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
Add in ketchup, pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, apricot jam or jelly and ginger powder; cook stirring with wooden spoon over medium heat until the mixture boils (adjust ingredients to taste, if you prefer a sweeter sauce then add in more brown sugar) cook simmering over medium-low heat stirring for about 15 minutes.
Thicken the sauce with cold water or cornstarch to thick if desired.
Add in pineapple chunks; mix to combine.
Pour the sauce over the chicken pieces in the pan; turn chicken to coat with the sauce.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Uncover and continue to bake for another 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is tender.
