Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner

Course entree

Ingredients
  

  • 32 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts (4 thick breasts)
  • 1/3 cup BBQ sauce
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 3/4 tsp chipotle powder, divided
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 red onion
  • 3 cups fresh pineapple chunks
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Wash hands with soap and water.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Add the chicken breasts to a large Ziploc bag. (Do not rinse raw poultry or meat.) To the bag, add the BBQ sauce, ½ tsp. chipotle powder and lime juice. Seal the bag and squish around until the chicken is well coated. Set the bag in a shallow pan and place on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes. Do not reuse marinades used on raw foods.
  • Wash hands with soap and water after handling uncooked meat.
  • Gently rub red pepper, green pepper and onion under cold running water.
  • On a clean cutting board, chop the pineapple, onions and peppers into large chunks. Add everything to a large bowl with the olive oil, ¼ tsp. chipotle powder and salt. Toss until the veggies and fruit are well coated.
  • Add the veggies and pineapple to a sheet pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Create 4 openings with the veggies for the chicken breasts.
  • Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and nestle the chicken into the openings on the sheet pan. Wash hands with soap and water.
  • Bake at 350°F for 30-40 minutes, until internal temperature reaches165 °F on food thermometer. (Bake time will depend on the thickness of the chicken breasts.)
  • Serve immediately with extra, fresh BBQ sauce on the side.
