Ingredients
- 2 bell peppers sliced thin (I used one red and one green)
- 1 large onion sliced thin
- 2 1/4 cups fresh pineapple chopped into tidbit size
- 1 garlic clove diced small
- 1 medium jalepeno diced small
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 chicken breasts sliced thin
- 2 tablespoons chile powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Prepare all the ingredients by chopping them to their correct sizes.
- Add the oil to a medium skillet and heat over medium heat.
- Add the peppers and the onion and sauté until they start to become translucent.
- Add the garlic and jalepeno and sauté for 5 more minutes.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients - the thinly sliced chicken, chopped pineapple, salt, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and lime juice.
- Bring to a simmer and cover for 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- If there is a lot of liquid still left in the skillet, simmer for another 5 minutes.
Notes
Leave out the jalepeno and cayenne pepper to make it less spicy.
You can used canned pineapple tidbits in place of the fresh pineapple - but if you can, use fresh!
