Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix together the light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, thyme, cumin, 1 teaspoon of garlic salt, paprika, chili powder, and nutmeg in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Rub both sides of chicken breasts with the spice mixture, and place into a 9x9-inch baking dish. Sprinkle any remaining seasoning mix on top of chicken, if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is lightly browned, no longer pink inside, and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chicken breast should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- While chicken is baking, bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Chop half the pineapple slices. Mix the chopped pineapple, cilantro, and olive oil into the cooked rice, and season to taste with a pinch or two of garlic salt and black pepper. Fluff the rice up with a fork, and transfer to a serving platter. Serve with the baked chicken, topped with remaining pineapple slices.

- Set aside.
- Cut pineapple slices in half.
- In a nonstick skillet, sauté in oil over medium heat until slightly browned.
- Set aside.
- Rub chicken breasts with garlic.
- Dredge in flour until thoroughly coated.
- In pan juices, sauté chicken over medium heat until browned,about 2 minutes.
- Turn and brown other side.
- Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
- Rinse or wipe pan.
- Note: you don't need to cook the chicken in this step; you're just browning the flour coating so that it sticks to the chicken while it's simmering in the sauce.
- Cooking the flour also prevents a pasty flavor.
- Pour honey-soy mixture into pan.
- Return chicken to pan and simmer in honey mixture for 12-15 minutes over low heat.
- Turn chicken once during cooking being careful not to tear the coating.
- Note: Make sure the sauce is only simmering.
- If the heat is too high, the mixture bubbles vigorously and burns, ruining the flavor of the dish.
- Serve over rice.
- Serve with snow peas or broccoli, arranged decoratively with pineapple.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro and crushed red pepper, if desired.
