Tropical Hawaiian Chicken on a Sheet Pan is a vibrant, sweet-savory dish featuring juicy chicken, colorful bell peppers, caramelized pineapple, and a tangy marinade—all roasted together on one pan for a flavorful, easy meal with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks (or canned, drained)
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar or lime juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional garnish: chopped cilantro or green onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add chicken pieces to the marinade and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Spread marinated chicken, pineapple, bell peppers, and red onion on the sheet pan in an even layer.
  5. Drizzle remaining marinade over the pan and toss lightly to coat.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  7. Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions and serve.

Notes

  • Add snap peas, zucchini, or broccoli for extra veggies.
  • Use store-bought teriyaki sauce for a shortcut.
  • For a spicy kick, add sriracha or red pepper flakes to the marinade.
  • Swap chicken for shrimp or tofu for variation.
  • Leftovers store well and reheat easily in oven or microwave.
