Description
A delightful blend of sweet pineapple, savory chicken, and colorful bell peppers roasted to perfection on a single sheet pan.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ lbs (700 g) boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
- 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 ½ cups fresh pineapple chunks (or canned, drained)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp paprika
- ¼ tsp chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the oven & pan: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Assemble ingredients: Spread chicken, bell peppers, onion, and pineapple on the pan.
- Drizzle with olive oil: Add garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and optional chili flakes. Toss to coat evenly.
- Bake: Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until chicken is fully cooked (165°F / 74°C internal temp).
- Make the sauce: While baking, whisk soy sauce, pineapple juice, honey, and vinegar in a saucepan.
- Simmer: Cook for 3–4 minutes. If you like it thicker, stir in cornstarch slurry and cook until glossy.
- Finish: Once chicken and veggies are done, drizzle sauce over top (or serve on the side for dipping).
- Garnish: Add sesame seeds or sliced green onions if desired.
Notes
For deeper flavors, marinate your chicken for a few hours before cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
