3. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and season them with salt and pepper.
4. Pour the barbecue sauce mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
5. Scatter the pineapple chunks around and on top of the chicken.
6. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the chicken and pineapples.

Variations & Tips
To switch up this recipe, you can try different types of barbecue sauce, such as a spicy or smoky version to add an extra kick or depth of flavor. Adding bell peppers and onions can add sweetness and texture. For a zestier take, squeeze some fresh lime over the chicken before serving. If you're looking for a lighter version, you could also grill the chicken and pineapple instead of baking.
