How do I make an incomplete circle stroke for a donut chart?

I’m trying to emulate this type of stroke:

So far, I’ve only been able to pen over the stroke and try to Minus it off (though I’m a rookie and still don’t understand the whole pathfinder tool completely), but it’s tedious and I’m not that great at it.
