Hawaiian Chicken & Rice Meal


Ingredients


    8 (4oz.) Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast 

    2 can Sliced Pineapple in it's own juices
    4 cups Sliced Green Bell Pepper
    4 cups Sliced Yellow Onion
    6 cups Enriched Long Grain White Rice 
    Salt
    Pepper
    Garlic Powder 
    Water


Directions

1. Preheat Oven to 375 F. Place Chicken in baking pan. Pour 1/2 can of pineapple juice over chicken & add 1 cup of water. Sprinkle chicken with Salt, pepper & garlic powder to taste. Cover pan with foil. Bake for 35 - 40 minutes. 

2. Cover bottom of Skillet with water (I use water instead of oil or butter.) Saute bell pepper, onion & pineapple, just until Bell Pepper becomes bright Green. Add remaining pineapple juice as water cooks away.

3. Once Chicken is done in Oven, pull out and sear in skillet with the vegetables.

4. Make rice as directed per package. And top the rice with Chicken, vegetables & pineapple. 

Serving Size: Makes 8 Servings

*** Tips ***

Sometimes, I take the chicken from the oven and sear both sides on the griddle for a grilled effect. You can also do this with the vegetables & pineapple if desired.

You may also substitute packaged rice pilaf instead of plain white rice. 

Add 1 cup finely cut carrot sticks or strips to vegetables for more flavor and color.
