Directions
Cook enough rice to yield 4½ cups of cooked rice.
Meanwhile simmer the chicken in water with bouillon cubes. Remove meat from bones and cut into chunks. Save 1 cup of chicken broth. While chicken is cooking, add oil in frying pan or wok and sauté the radishes, green peppers, and pineapple until crisp tender, but not brown.
Mix 1 cup saved chicken broth with ½ cup pineapple juice and 1 teaspoon soy sauce. Add to pan.
Mix flour with 1 Tb. cold water and stir to remove lumps. Add to vegetables. Add cut up chicken and a dash of pepper, and cook until everything is hot. Serve over rice. If desired, sprinkle chow mein noodles on top.
Serves 6. (Portion is ¾ cup mixture served over ¾ cup cooked rice.)
