Ingredients
  

For the Chicken Marinade:
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Juice of 1 lime
For the Vegetables:
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks fresh or canned, drained
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper sliced
  • ½ red onion cut into wedges

Equipment

  • Large sheet pan (lined with foil or parchment)
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Tongs or spatula

Method
 

Preheat the oven:
  1. Set to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with foil or parchment.
Make the marinade:
  1. In a bowl, whisk olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper.
Marinate the chicken:
  1. Place chicken breasts in the bowl and coat well. Let it sit for 10–15 minutes while you prep the veggies.
  2. Tip: If you have more time, marinate for 1–2 hours in the fridge for deeper flavor.
Prep the sheet pan:
  1. Arrange marinated chicken in the center of the sheet pan. Scatter pineapple, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion around the chicken.
Roast:
  1. Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping chicken halfway, until it reaches 165°F internal temperature.
Broil (optional):
  1. For golden caramelized edges, broil for the last 2–3 minutes.
Rest and serve:
  1. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Notes

If using canned pineapple, drain it well, or the extra liquid will prevent caramelization on the sheet pan.
