Recipe:
1. Season the chicken breasts with the roasted red pepper and garlic seasoning and arrange them in a greased baking dish.
2. Bake in a preheated oven at 400 F for about 20 minutes or until the chicken breasts are fully cooked.
3. Heat the butter in a large skillet and saute the shallots for 2 minutes.
4. Add the pineapple, ginger and red peppers and saute for 3 minutes more.
5. Deglaze with the white wine and add the baked chicken breasts.
6. Pour the chicken broth and cream and bring to a boil. Cook until the sauce is reduced to half and is thick.
7. Taste the sauce for salt and add some if necessary. I served the pineapple chicken with roasted vegetables and roasted red skin potatoes.
