Sheet Pan Chipotle Chicken Pineapple Tacos

Molly LaFontaine
My sheet pan chipotle chicken pineapple tacos are the perfect weeknight meal! I love being able to toss everything on a sheet pan and bake it. It’s got the perfect level of spice with a little sweetness from the pineapple!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cup fresh pineapple chunks (or frozen)
  • 1/2 of a red onion
  • chipotle seasoning (1/4 Tbsp for mild OR 1/2 Tbsp for medium/hot)
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast (or 2 small)
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
  • 1 tsp honey

Instructions
 

  • Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper and preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Roughly dice onion into small pieces and cut pineapple into chunks (if you haven't already). Set both aside.
  • In a small bowl add chipotle seasoning, ground black pepper, and sea salt. Mix to combine and set aside.
  • Place whole chicken breast in the middle of the prepared sheet pan along with diced onions and pineapple chunks.
  • Add minced garlic cloves, sprinkle on all of seasoning mixture, and drizzle honey over the top of everything.
  • Bake in the preheated oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.
  • When fully cooked, remove parchment paper so everything is on the sheet pan to prevent pieces of paper getting into your food. Let rest for 2 minutes.
  • Shred chicken with 2 forks (or place in a bowl and shred with an electric mixer on low speed).
  • Toss shredded chicken with onions and pineapple chunks to evenly season then serve on tortillas or tortilla chips. Enjoy!
