  7. In another bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and grated ginger.
  8. Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetables.
  9. Toss the vegetables lightly to coat while keeping the chicken in place.
  10. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender.

Notes

Serve with steamed rice, coconut rice, or cauliflower rice. Chicken thighs can be substituted for chicken breasts. Fresh pineapple gives the best flavor, but canned pineapple chunks can also be used. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
