Ingredients

  • 1-1.5 pound chicken thighs boneless skinless preferred
  • 1 can pineapple chunks 14 oz., drained, juice set aside
  • 1 large bell pepper red used, cut into chunks

Instructions

  • Add thighs to the bottom of the pot, overlapping least possible. Pour pineapple chunks, without juice, and chunks of bell peppers on the top.
