Pineapple Chicken and Rice

Ingredients:

• 1 lb chicken breast, cut into cubes
• 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup jasmine rice
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp freshly grated ginger
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• ¼ cup sliced green onions
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken and cook until it’s browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same pan, sauté the chopped onion, garlic, and red bell pepper until softened.
3. Add the pineapple and cook for 2 minutes, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
4. Stir in the rice, chicken broth, soy sauce, ginger, salt, and pepper. Bring everything to a boil.
5. Lower the heat, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 18–20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
6. Return the cooked chicken to the pan, stir to combine, and heat through.
7. Garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
