Hawaiian Chicken Bake

It’s reminiscent of a Hawaiian pizza, but without the carbs and ham. I was inspired one summer by juicy, fresh pineapple and dreamed up a yummy casserole-ish dish to incorporate it. Since chicken is my choice of protein, that’s when my Hawaiian Chicken Bake recipe was born! It combines chicken and pineapple in the most delicious way.
