Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red onion, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 (20 oz) can pineapple chunks, drained (reserve ¼ cup juice for the sauce)
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup reserved pineapple juice
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • Toasted sesame seeds for garnish
  • Sliced green onions for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large, rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray or a little oil.
  • Make the Sauce: In a small saucepan, whisk together the soy sauce, reserved pineapple juice, honey, ketchup, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. In a small separate bowl, make a slurry by mixing the cornstarch with one tablespoon of cold water. Whisk the slurry into the simmering sauce and continue to whisk until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Combine on the Pan: Place the cubed chicken, chopped bell peppers, and red onion on the prepared baking sheet. Pour about two-thirds of the prepared Hawaiian sauce over the mixture. Toss everything until it’s evenly coated in the sauce.
  • Bake: Spread the mixture into a single layer. Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Add Pineapple: Remove the pan from the oven. Add the drained pineapple chunks and gently stir everything. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  • Serve: Drizzle the remaining sauce over the top of the finished dish. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately over a bed of fluffy rice or quinoa.

Notes
