Description

A vibrant and comforting dish featuring chicken, sweet pineapple, and zesty teriyaki sauce stuffed in colorful bell peppers.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bell peppers
  • 1 lb chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds.
  3. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until golden brown (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Stir in the cooked rice, pineapple chunks, and teriyaki sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and well combined.
  5. Fill each bell pepper with the chicken and rice mixture without overstuffing; just pack them comfortably.
  6. Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil to keep them moist during baking.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the peppers are tender but still hold their shape.
  8. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving to add a pop of color and flavor.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
