  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: chopped cilantro and sesame seeds for garnishing

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Mix soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and olive oil in a small bowl to prepare the marinade.
  3. Place the chicken in a resealable bag or shallow dish, pour half of the marinade over it, and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Arrange the marinated chicken, bell peppers, red onion, and pineapple on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle remaining marinade over the vegetables and chicken.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature 165°F) and vegetables are tender. Broil for an additional 2-3 minutes for caramelization if desired.

Notes

  • Use chicken thighs for juicier results.
  • Feel free to swap pineapple with mango or papaya for different tropical flavors.
  • Add sliced jalapeños for extra spice.
  • Best served immediately after baking but can be stored refrigerated for up to 3 days.
