Creating Hawaiian Chicken Sheet Pan can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a separate bowl or a resealable bag. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 10-15 minutes.
4. Arrange Vegetables: On the prepared baking sheet, spread the pineapple chunks, red and yellow bell peppers, snap peas, and red onion evenly.
5. Add Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the baking sheet alongside the vegetables.
6. Drizzle Remaining Marinade: Pour any remaining marinade over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
8. Broil for Crispiness: For an extra touch, you can broil the dish for an additional 2-3 minutes to give the chicken a golden brown finish.
9. Garnish: Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
10. Serve: Serve the baked chicken and vegetables over cooked rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
