Steps:
- Combine ground beef, onion, egg, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Use a cookie scoop to shape into meatballs.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add meatballs and cook, turning often, until browned and no longer pink in the centers, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove meatballs from the skillet and drain oil, reserving 1 1/2 tablespoons of drippings.
- Drain pineapple chunks from the can, reserving juice; set pineapple aside. Add enough additional pineapple juice to make 1 1/2 cups total.
- Combine pineapple juice, sugar, 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon water, 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons vinegar, soy sauce, and remaining 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch in a bowl; mix well. Stir into drippings in the skillet.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and thickened. Add meatballs, pineapple chunks, and bell peppers. Cook until thoroughly heated, coating well, about 5 minutes. Serve over hot cooked rice.
