Recipe View Serve: Serve the Teriyaki and Pineapple Chicken hot over a bed of fluffy cooked rice. Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions, if desired.

For a richer flavor, marinate the chicken in 1/2 cup of teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as broccoli florets, snow peas, or water chestnuts for added texture and nutrients.
If you prefer a sweeter dish, add a tablespoon of honey or brown sugar to the sauce.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the spiciness of the dish. Omit them altogether for a milder flavor.
To make this gluten-free, use tamari instead of teriyaki sauce and cornstarch instead of all-purpose flour for thickening.
