Step-by-Step Guide

1. Cut the chicken into one-inch cubes.

2. Whisk the teriyaki sauce, olive oil, honey, and sweet chili sauce together in a large bowl and add the chicken. Toss to coat. Pour it all into a gallon ziplock bag, seal it, and refrigerate for 3 hours to marinate.

3. Once the 3 hours is up, preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

4. Cut the peppers into strips, then add the peppers and pineapple to a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and paper. Toss to coat. Add the chicken and about ½ cup of the marinade and toss it all together.

5. Arrange everything in a single layer on a large baking sheet and bake for 7 minutes, flip everything over, and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes.

Important Recipe Notes

  • Give the chicken enough time to marinate. Letting the chicken sit in the marinade for about 3 hours helps it soak up all the sweet and savory flavors. If you’re short on time, even 30 minutes will still add some flavor.
  • Spread everything in a single layer on the pan. This helps the chicken and vegetables roast nicely instead of steaming. If the pan is too crowded, the ingredients won’t cook evenly.
  • Cut the chicken into even pieces. Try to keep the cubes about the same size so they cook evenly in the oven.
  • Drain the pineapple well. Too much juice can make the sheet pan meal watery while it cooks.
  • Watch the cook time. Chicken cooks quickly at high heat, so keep an eye on it toward the end to make sure it stays juicy and doesn’t dry out.
  • Add the sesame seeds at the end. Sprinkling them on right before serving gives the dish a little extra flavor and texture.
