Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Vegetables

  • 2 lbs chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2 cups pineapple chunks

Sauce and Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Garnish and Serving

  • Chopped green onions, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Cooked rice, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Chicken and Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the bite-sized chicken breast pieces with sliced bell pepper, red onion slices, and pineapple chunks, ensuring an even mix.
  3. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined to create a savory marinade.
  4. Coat the Mixture: Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetable mix and toss thoroughly until everything is evenly coated with the marinade.
  5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated mixture out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even cooking.
  6. Bake: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot over cooked rice for a complete meal.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh pineapple chunks for natural sweetness and texture.
  • You can substitute chicken breast with chicken thighs for juicier meat, adjusting cooking time accordingly.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like snap peas or zucchini for extra variety.
  • Ensure the chicken pieces are cut roughly the same size to allow even cooking.
  • Serve with steamed jasmine or basmati rice to complement the flavors.
