Hawaiian Chicken Sheet Pan

A fun and easy sheet pan meal featuring tender chicken, colorful vegetables, and sweet pineapple, perfect for busy weeknights.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ lbs (700 g) boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 ½ cups fresh pineapple chunks (or canned, drained)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ¼ tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • ⅓ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup pineapple juice (from the can or fresh)
  • 3 tbsp honey (or brown sugar)
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (slurry, optional for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Spread out the chicken, bell peppers, onion, and pineapple on the pan. Drizzle with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and chili flakes. Toss everything to coat evenly.
  3. Roast in the oven for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked (165°F / 74°C internal temperature).
  4. Whisk together soy sauce, pineapple juice, honey, and vinegar in a saucepan while the chicken and veggies are baking. Simmer for 3–4 minutes. If you like a thicker sauce, stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until glossy.
  5. Drizzle the sauce over the top once the chicken and veggies are done (or serve it on the side for dipping). Garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions if desired.

Notes

Cut the chicken and veggies into similar sizes for even cooking. Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. Feel free to add other vegetables like broccoli or snap peas.
