Method

Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.
Prepare the Chicken:
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Rub each chicken breast with olive oil to ensure they stay moist during baking.
- In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mix evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Assemble the Dish:
- Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish in a single layer.
- Pour the BBQ sauce over the chicken, ensuring each breast is well-coated. Reserve a small amount of BBQ sauce for basting later.
- Arrange the pineapple slices on top of and around the chicken breasts.
Bake the Chicken:
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- After 25 minutes, remove the foil and baste the chicken with the reserved BBQ sauce. Continue baking uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- If desired, place the baking dish under the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes to caramelize the BBQ sauce and pineapple slices for extra flavor and color.
Serve:
- Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley if desired.
- Serve the Baked Pineapple BBQ Chicken Breast with your favorite side dishes, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
