Directions

Prepare the Hawaiian Chicken

1.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

2.

Season chicken with salt and pepper then add to the skillet.

3.

Sear outside until a nice golden crust forms.

4.

Remove chicken from pan, add in bell peppers and sauté for three to five minutes until tender. Remove from pan.

5.

Add sauce ingredients to pan and bring to a simmer. Add chicken back in and cook on medium-low heat, letting sauce reduce while chicken cooks through.
