Description
This Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Sheet Pan combines juicy chicken, sweet pineapple, colorful bell peppers, and red onion tossed in Hawaiian BBQ sauce. An easy one-pan dinner finished with fresh lime, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1–1.5 lbs chicken breast or boneless skinless chicken thighs (cut into cubes)
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 orange bell pepper
- ½ red onion (cut into chunks)
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- ½ cup Primal Kitchen Foods Hawaiian BBQ Sauce (plus more for drizzling)
- 1 tbs avocado oil
- ¼ tsp salt
- Juice of 1 lime
- Cilantro and white sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cut the chicken into evenly sized cubes. Chop the red and orange bell peppers into bite-sized pieces and cut the red onion into chunks.
- Place the chicken, bell peppers, red onion, and pineapple chunks in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the Hawaiian BBQ sauce, avocado oil, and salt. Toss until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
- Spread the mixture in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet, leaving space between the ingredients.
- Roast in a preheated oven until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender. Check the thickest chicken pieces with a food thermometer; they must reach 165°F (74°C). The exact cooking time and oven temperature were not supplied.
- Remove from the oven and squeeze the lime juice over everything.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and white sesame seeds. Drizzle with additional Hawaiian BBQ sauce if desired and serve warm.
Notes
- Chicken breast and boneless skinless chicken thighs both work well. Cut the chicken into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
- Drain canned pineapple thoroughly if using it instead of fresh pineapple.
- Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet. Use two pans if necessary to help the ingredients roast rather than steam.
