A vibrant and flavorful Asian-inspired meal combining tender chicken, sweet pineapple, and crunchy bell peppers over fluffy rice or quinoa.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (mixed colors)
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 2 cups rice or quinoa
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon oil for cooking


Instructions

  1. Cook rice or quinoa according to package instructions until fluffy.
  2. Slice chicken into bite-sized pieces and marinate in teriyaki sauce for at least 20 minutes.
  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook marinated chicken until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add pineapple chunks and chopped bell peppers to the skillet, cooking until peppers are tender and pineapple is warmed.
  5. Assemble bowls with cooked rice or quinoa topped with chicken and pineapple mix, and drizzle with extra teriyaki sauce if desired.

Marinate the chicken longer for more flavor, and feel free to substitute vegetables as desired.
