Description

A vibrant and satisfying meal featuring bell peppers stuffed with chicken, rice, teriyaki sauce, and pineapple chunks.


Ingredients

  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 1 pound cooked, shredded chicken breast
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions for garnish


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds, creating a hollow space.
  3. In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cooked rice, pineapple chunks, teriyaki sauce, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Stuff each bell pepper with the chicken and rice mixture until full.
  5. Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish and cover with foil.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the peppers are tender.
  7. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to slightly caramelize the top.
  8. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken in teriyaki sauce before shredding. Leftover filling can be served as a side dish.
