Zippy Pineapple Baked Chicken Breasts

Recipes » Main Dish » Poultry - Chicken

A pineapple glaze that tastes truly Hawaiian flavors this chicken while it bakes by itself in the oven. Great with rice, a green vegetable, and a salad of crisp greens.

"I made this last weekend and am making it again tonight. This recipe will be come a regular in my household. I added a fresh mango and a bit of Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce to give it a little heat. The sauce is delicious! My husband is a vegetarian, so we also prepare his veggie chik patties with the sauce. I plan to try the sauce on slow baked baby back ribs as well." - dorceynaber

	Please indicate if these are boneless or bone-in chicken breasts. Montagcat 1 weeks, 4 days, 17 hours, 56 minutes ago
	I loved it with white rice. Brookesky 1 weeks, 5 days, 23 hours, 28 minutes ago
	It was good, but I felt the mustard drowned out some of the other flavors. Next time I'll add a little less or maybe a different type and see what happens. keoni78 1 weeks, 6 days, 11 hours, 3 minutes ago

	My whole family loved... I did cut the brown sugar by half. Served with brown sticky rice and it was a huge hit!! lesliewingler29 1 months, 4 weeks, 1 days, 12 hours, 39 minutes ago
	This was a big hit in my house! My husband really liked it and picky 2 yr old said it was yummy. Thanks for posting! AshleyM77 1 months, 4 weeks, 1 days, 22 hours, 56 minutes ago
	What type of Mustard do you use? annerose 2 months, 3 weeks, 4 days, 1 hours, 59 minutes ago
	My entire family (& even the neighborhood children) loved it! Whenever I do a new recipe, everyone rates it so I can decide if I should make it again. Before I even asked I was getting '10!!!' from all. This has been added to our regular meal plan! ginny72 2 months, 3 weeks, 5 days, 21 hours, 57 minutes ago

	I made this tonight for my family and my husbands friends. Everyone loved it, so thank goodness I made a bunch! I did add some cloves to the mixture and it tasted like Ham very very tasty. I will be making it again! lizlombardo7 6 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 14 hours, 41 minutes ago
	Oh my goodness, this was delicious! I halved the sugar, as several reviews stated it was very sweet, and it was perfect. I also added cornstarch. It is a definite new favorite for our house! krisser73 8 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 16 hours, 13 minutes ago
	sarahcoursey 8 months, 3 weeks, 1 days, 14 hours, 47 minutes ago
	Really good! It is a little too sweet, so i will cut down on the brown sugar next time. magrox210 9 months, 5 days, 15 hours, 47 minutes ago
	I made this for dinner tonight and it was so easy and very yummy. I ran out of brown sugar though and had to use regular sugar. Looking forward to trying it again with brown sugar. On a side note, this recipe was so easy my seven year did it. She loved being able to make dinner (for the most part). tonirobbins2 9 months, 1 weeks, 5 days, 13 hours, 23 minutes ago
	Very good!! I added a little coconut shavings to it:) family always wants to eat this! Cobatt 10 months, 6 days, 14 hours, 3 minutes ago
	My family ate this all up-it was better than OK, but not outstanding. It's going on the keeper shelf tho, cause the picky eater didn't complain. Thekidsmom1224 10 months, 3 weeks, 6 days, 2 hours, 31 minutes ago
	Made it for my sons and bf and they loved every bit of it kileanhuff 11 months, 2 weeks, 3 days, 10 hours, 5 minutes ago
	This was very tasty and my picky hubby absolutely loved it! Super simple. Carnevab 11 months, 2 weeks, 3 days, 15 hours, 47 minutes ago
	Good chicken. Cook time is a little long. Chicken got a bit dry. I recommend 20 then glaze and do another 20 to 30 minutes. Glaze is also a little too sweet. I will try less sugar next time. Lancaste21 1 years, 1 days, 15 hours, 17 minutes ago
	I find that if you cut it up when it's done place it in a bowl with the juice and eat it the next day it's even better Eclipse28 1 years, 2 weeks, 3 days, 18 hours, 33 minutes ago
