Skillet Pineapple Chicken Recipe
Super juicy on the inside and with a slightly sweet and spicy sauce on the outside, this is a slam dunk pineapple chicken recipe!
Ingredients
You'll need chicken thighs, olive oil, salt, pepper, canned pineapple, barbecue sauce, and red pepper flakes.
Can You Use Fresh Pineapple?
Fresh pineapple has an enzyme in it that can make your chicken a bit mushy. That's why we use canned pineapple instead.
