It\u2019s a bright and tasty base for many different takes on dinner, whether you serve it over rice, with a hearty bread or even scooped over a bed of greens to form a uniquely appealing salad.<\/p>\n<p>This is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/one-pot-meals\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/one-pot-meals\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">one-pot dish<\/a> that comes together easily and cooks up fast, so keep it in mind for those busy weeknights when you want a satisfying meal but don\u2019t feel like doing much work. The hardest part of the whole process will be not sneaking a few bites before you serve the rest of the family.<\/p>\n<h2>Caribbean Chicken Ingredients<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Olive oil:<\/strong> You can use a different oil if need be, but olive oil is really the best choice here, as it adds some pleasant flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chicken breasts:<\/strong> This recipe calls for 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic-herb seasoning blend:<\/strong> Use just the 2 teaspoons of this potent seasoning mix. Add much more, and you\u2019ll throw off the flavor profile.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fire-roasted diced tomatoes:<\/strong> Add the can of fire-roasted diced tomatoes without draining off the liquid first.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unsweetened pineapple chunks:<\/strong> Use one 8-ounce can of unsweetened pineapple chunks, and this time <em>don\u2019t<\/em> add the juice from the can. Even unsweetened pineapple juice will add too much sweetness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barbecue sauce:<\/strong> Choose your favorite barbecue sauce for this dish, be it sweet, smoky or spicy. Or a mix of the three.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hot cooked rice:<\/strong> The rice is optional, but it really is one of the best sauce-soaking vehicles for this tangy Caribbean chicken recipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fresh cilantro leaves (optional):<\/strong> The fresh <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/coriander-vs-cilantro\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/coriander-vs-cilantro\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener\">cilantro<\/a> is also optional, which will be welcome news to those in the \u201ccilantro tastes like soap\u201d camp.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Season and saute the chicken<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2058059\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Caribbean-Chicken_TOHD24_215718_KristinaVanni_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"cooked chicken in a skillet\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.

(You can also simply use a spicy barbecue sauce, as noted above.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Try it with pork:<\/strong> This same flavor profile works well with pork. Follow the recipe just as it\u2019s laid out here, using boneless pork chops, cut into cubes, and make sure to note the internal temperature of the meat, cutting the heat when it hits 145\u00b0F.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use fresh tomatoes:<\/strong> If you don\u2019t have a can of fire-roasted tomatoes, just chop up about 2 cups of fresh tomatoes and toss those in instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Caribbean Chicken<\/h2>\n<p>This dish will keep well in the fridge for about two days. Store it in airtight containers, and reheat it in the microwave or in a pan with a splash of broth.<\/p>\n<h2>Caribbean Chicken Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2058063\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Caribbean-Chicken_TOHD24_215718_KristinaVanni_5.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Caribbean Chicken with rice in a bowl\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What is the safe final cooking temperature of the chicken?<\/h3>\n<p>Always cook chicken until a food thermometer reads an internal temperature of 160\u00b0 before you cut the heat. It will continue to cook for a little while, reaching 165\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use fresh pineapple?<\/h3>\n<p>Of course! If you have fresh pineapples on hand, they&#8217;re great for this dish instead of the canned. Add about 1 cup of chopped fresh pineapple.<\/p>\n<h3>What does this Caribbean chicken recipe taste like?<\/h3>\n<p>The flavors of this dish will remind you of a <a
