Instructions

First, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground chicken until cooked through.

Then, add in diced pineapple, minced garlic, coconut aminos, honey and ground ginger to skillet. Stir to combine.

Cook for 5 minutes on medium low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

While that cooks, slice peppers in half. Remove seeds. Place peppers on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.

Stuff each pepper with chicken pineapple mixture. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until peppers have softened. For extra crispy peppers, broil on high for 2 minutes.

Finally, remove pan from oven. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pre-Roast Peppers for Tender Skin 🫑
Char the bell peppers under the broiler for 3-4 minutes before stuffing to soften the skin and make them easier to bite through while maintaining their structural integrity.
Caramelize Pineapple First 🍍
Sauté the diced pineapple in a hot pan with a touch of olive oil for 2-3 minutes before mixing with the chicken to concentrate its sweetness and add depth to the teriyaki flavor profile.
Bloom Ginger in Oil 🧄
Toast the ground ginger in warm olive oil for 30 seconds before adding other ingredients to unlock its essential oils and intensify the warm, spicy notes throughout the filling.
Use Coconut Aminos Strategically ⏱️
Add half the coconut aminos to the chicken filling and reserve the rest to drizzle over the finished peppers, creating layers of umami flavor that prevent the sauce from becoming one-dimensional.
Hollow Peppers Properly 🔪
Cut a thin slice from the top and carefully remove seeds with a spoon rather than a knife to preserve the pepper walls and prevent leaking during the 25-30 minute bake time.
