Sprinkle chicken with salt and ginger. Heat oil in large skillet over med.
heat; add chicken and garlic and cook 5 minutes. Add liquid from
pineapple, 3/4 cup of the orange juice, the bouillon and vinegar. Cover;
simmer 10 minutes, or until chicken is tender.

Add celery, green pepper and onion. Cover; cook 5 minutes longer. Add
tomato wedges and pineapple chunks.

In small bowl, blend together flour, soy sauce, sugar and remaining 1/4 cup
orange juice. Add to skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture
thickens and comes to a boil; cook 1 minute longer. Serve over rice, if
desired. Makes 4 servings.

I got this recipe from a cookbook called "The Pleasures of cooking"
Sometimes I also add some sliced carrot.
