Instructions
Follow these easy steps to create your delicious Teriyaki Pineapple Chicken Stuffed Peppers:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Peppers: Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Place them upright in a baking dish.
3. Cook Chicken: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.
4. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix the cooked chicken, diced pineapple, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, cooked rice, and chopped green onions. Stir until well combined.
5. Stuff the Peppers: Carefully fill each bell pepper with the chicken and pineapple mixture, pressing down gently to pack it in.
6. Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the oven. Bake for 25 minutes.
7. Uncover and Finish: After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the tops to brown slightly.
8. Garnish: Once cooked, remove the peppers from the oven. Garnish with sesame seeds and additional green onions if desired.
9. Serve: Allow the stuffed peppers to cool for a few minutes before serving.
