Warm up a saucepan over medium heat and pour in the olive oil.

Once heated, add the chopped sweet bell peppers and sauté until they become soft, usually about 2-3 minutes.

Remove the cooked peppers from the saucepan and place them on a separate plate for use later.

In the same saucepan, add water and sea salt. Stir well until the salt dissolve completely in the water and bring to a boil.

Next, stir in the uncooked jasmine rice, cover the saucepan with a lid, and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer until the rice absorbs all the water and becomes tender, approximately 15 minutes.

When the rice is cooked, use a fork to fluff it up and then mix in the sautéed bell peppers, fresh pineapple, and finely chopped cilantro.
