Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks Juicy, adds sweetness
  • 2 cups bell peppers (red, green, or yellow), sliced Use any color you prefer
  • 1 large onion, sliced Adds flavor
Marinade
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred) For the marinade
  • 1/4 cup honey Adds sweetness
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic Enhances flavor
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • Salt and pepper to taste For seasoning
Optional Garnishes
  • sesame seeds For topping
  • green onions For garnish
  • fresh cilantro For garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken thighs in a large zip-top bag and pour half of the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor).
  4. On a large sheet pan, arrange sliced bell peppers and onion, then pour the remaining marinade over the vegetables, tossing to coat.
Cooking
  1. Place the marinated chicken thighs skin-side up on the sheet pan amidst the veggies.
  2. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the skin is crispy. In the last 10 minutes, add pineapple chunks to the pan.
Serving
  1. Once done, remove from the oven, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with chopped green onions or cilantro. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Customize your vegetables based on preference. Marinate longer for optimal flavor. Use a meat thermometer for perfect cooking.
