Ingredients
  

Pineapple BBQ Chicken

  • 12 oz chicken breasts (thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup pineapple (frozen)
  • 3/4 cup bbq sauce
  • 1/4 cup red onions (diced)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Place the chicken in a baking dish. Coat the chicken with bbq sauce. Top it off with the pineapple and red onions. Sprinkle it with the seasonings.
  • Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes (flipping the chicken halfway through). Cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 165F.
