Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. On the pan, spread chicken, bell peppers, onion, and pineapple. Drizzle with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and chili flakes. Toss everything to coat evenly.
Cooking
  1. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked (165°F / 74°C internal temp).
Making Sauce
  1. While baking, whisk soy sauce, pineapple juice, honey, and vinegar in a saucepan. Simmer for 3–4 minutes.
  2. If you like it thicker, stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until glossy.
Finishing Touch
  1. Once the chicken and veggies are done, drizzle the sauce over the top or serve it on the side for dipping. Garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions if desired.
