Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks (drained, reserve juice)
- 1 red bell pepper (diced)
- 1 yellow bell pepper (diced)
- 1 medium red onion (cut into wedges)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey (or brown sugar)
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken breast pieces with soy sauce, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat everything evenly, then set aside to marinate for 10-15 minutes.
- While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables by spreading the diced red and yellow bell peppers, onion wedges, and drained pineapple chunks on a large sheet pan.
- After marinating, add the chicken pieces to the sheet pan over the vegetables and pineapple. Pour any remaining marinade over the top.
- Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
- Check doneness using a meat thermometer; it should read 165°F (74°C). If not done, return to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
- Serve warm, ideally over steamed rice or quinoa to soak up that flavorful sauce. Enjoy!
Notes
- Serve over rice or quinoa.
- Adjust seasonings to suit your taste.
