Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Red onion
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Ground allspice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.25 cup Cilantro
- 4 cups Cooked white or jasmine rice (for serving, optional)
Instructions
1. Begin by prepping your ingredients. Slice the red and green bell peppers into thin strips, dice the red onion, mince the garlic cloves, and chop the cilantro. Set everything aside.
2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Season the chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the diced red onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
5. Add the red and green bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté for another 3 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
6. Stir in the ground allspice, ground cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper, cooking for 1 minute to toast the spices.
7. Add the pineapple chunks to the skillet along with 1 tablespoon of honey and 2 tablespoons of lime juice. Stir everything together and allow to cook for 3-4 minutes, letting the pineapple soften slightly and release its juices.
8. Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the medley of vegetables and pineapple. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken to coat.
9. Lower the heat and let everything simmer together for another 5-7 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully infused with the Caribbean flavors.
10. Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
11. Serve the Caribbean Chicken Medley over cooked white or jasmine rice for a complete meal, or enjoy it as is. Enjoy!
