πŸ›’ Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cubed)
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned) 🍍
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced 🌢️
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced 🌢️
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free) 🍢
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup 🍯
  • 1 tsp garlic powder πŸ§„
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish 🌿
  • Aluminum foil

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ How to Make It

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
  2. 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!).
  3. Assemble foil packets: Lay out 2–4 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.
  4. Air fry in batches if needed for 15–18 minutes, flipping once halfway. Chicken should be golden with grill marks and reach 165Β°F internal temp 🌑️
  5. Open carefully (watch out for steam!), garnish with parsley or cilantro, and enjoy that tropical aroma! 🏝️

🍽️ What to Serve With

  • Coconut rice or jasmine rice 🍚

♻️ Storage & Reheat Tips

Let leftovers cool, then store in airtight containers for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350Β°F for 3–5 minutes. Still juicy, still amazing πŸ”βœ¨
