๐ฉโ๐ณ How to Make It
- Preheat your air fryer to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC).
- Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, toss the cubed chicken with soy sauce, olive oil, honey, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes (optional but flavor-packed!).
- Assemble foil packets: Lay out 2โ4 pieces of foil. Divide the marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, and bell peppers evenly. Wrap into sealed packets, leaving a bit of space for air circulation.
- Air fry in batches if needed for 15โ18 minutes, flipping once halfway. Chicken should be golden with grill marks and reach 165ยฐF internal temp ๐ก๏ธ
- Open carefully (watch out for steam!), garnish with parsley or cilantro, and enjoy that tropical aroma! ๐๏ธ
๐ฝ๏ธ What to Serve With
- Coconut rice or jasmine rice ๐
- Garlic naan or flatbread ๐ซ
- Side of coleslaw or a crisp cucumber salad ๐ฅ๐ฅ
โป๏ธ Storage & Reheat Tips
Let leftovers cool, then store in airtight containers for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350ยฐF for 3โ5 minutes. Still juicy, still amazing ๐โจ
