INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons Pineapple Juice
1 tablespoon Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Rice Vinegar
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, combine pineapple juice, low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create a sweet and sour marinade.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, stirring to ensure they are well coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In a separate shallow dish, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs. Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and gently toss them in the breadcrumbs until evenly coated.
Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into strips. Drizzle them with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Arrange the breadcrumb-coated chicken pieces and bell pepper strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the peppers are tender. For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately, enjoying the balancing sweet and sour flavors paired with the roasted bell peppers.
