TERIYAKI PINEAPPLE CHICKEN

I saw a teriyaki pineapple chicken recipe on line and thought it looked good, so I thought I would try it. The problem was that I couldn't find the exact recipe again. I thought I'll just give it a go on my own. This is what I came up with.


What you need:

2 to 3 boneless chicken breasts sliced into bite sized pieces

1- 8 ounce or bigger can of pineapple chunks with juice

1- 10 ounce bottle of  teriyaki marinade and sauce

1- bag of fresh stir fry vegetables

garlic powder to taste

pepper to taste

five spice to taste

cornstarch mixed with water 


Directions:

Cut chicken breasts into bite sized pieces and place them in a big bowl

Add pineapple juice from canned pineapples to bowl. Place pineapples chunks aside.

Add 1/2 bottle of teriyaki marinade and sauce to chicken

Add garlic powder, pepper, five spice to chicken and mix all well

Heat a skillet over medium low heat and add sesame oil

When the oil is hot, add the chicken and once it starts cooking add fresh vegetables and stir.

Pour in the rest of the bottle of teriyaki marinade and sauce (or you could use less if you like) and stir everything once again.

Put cover on top and let it cook until the chicken is cooked through - about 10 minutes.

Put the pineapple chunks in at the end and let them warm through.

Mix cornstarch with water

Push meat and veggies to the outer rim of the skillet and add the cornstarch to the sauce in the middle. 

Mix cornstarch with sauce until sauce thickens. If you need to add more cornstarch/water mixture to thicken sauce, do so until the sauce is the thickness you want it.

Mix chicken, veggies, pineapple and sauce together. 

Pour mixture over rice and serve.
