Description

A delightful dish combining sweet and savory teriyaki chicken with pineapple, all stuffed in colorful bell peppers for a hearty meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 1 lb boneless chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds. Place them upright in a baking dish.
  3. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the cooked rice, pineapple chunks, teriyaki sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  5. Spoon the chicken and rice mixture into the prepared bell peppers, packing it down slightly.
  6. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  7. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
  8. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

Ensure the chicken is cooked fully before stuffing. Pack the filling tightly for maximum flavor.
