Follow these simple steps for a delicious Pineapple Chicken and Rice:

1. Prep the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season them with salt, black pepper, and ginger.
2. Heat Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add chopped onions, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
5. Add Rice: Stir in the uncooked rice, allowing it to toast slightly in the pan for about 2 minutes.
6. Incorporate Chicken Broth: Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
7. Add Pineapple: Once boiling, gently add the pineapple chunks and the cooked chicken back into the skillet. Stir well.
8. Simmer: Reduce heat, cover the skillet, and let the dish simmer for about 20 minutes, allowing the rice to absorb all the flavors.
9. Add Soy Sauce: After simmering, stir in the soy sauce and optional red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
10. Fluff & Serve: Remove from heat, fluff the rice with a fork, and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll create a vibrant, flavorful dish that’s sure to impress everyone at the table.
