Ingredients

  • 1 lb Boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 each Red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 each Green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup Pineapple chunks
  • 1/2 cup Sweet and sour sauce
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Cooked white rice, for serving
  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onions, for garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large sheet pan or line it with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, toss the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Arrange the chicken on the prepared sheet pan, leaving space for the vegetables.

  4. 4

    Add the chopped red and green bell peppers and pineapple chunks around the chicken.

  5. 5

    In a separate small bowl, whisk together sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce, honey, and rice vinegar until smooth.

  6. 6

    Drizzle the sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetables, tossing lightly to coat everything well.

  7. 7

    Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Stir once halfway through to ensure even cooking and superior stickiness.

  8. 8

    Serve hot over cooked white rice, and finish with a generous sprinkle of sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
