We had a tough time trying to find the pineapple teriyaki sauce called for in this recipe... but it sounded so good, we just HAD to try it! What to do? Improvise! We had great success making our own by combining 1/3 traditional teriyaki sauce and 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a brighter, more vibrant flavor than canned pineapple.
  • Cut the pineapple into bite-sized pieces. This will help the pineapple cook evenly and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Marinate the chicken in the pineapple juice. This will help to tenderize the chicken and infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, flavor, and nutrients to the dish.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still juicy. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough.
  • Serve the pineapple chicken bites with rice or noodles. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Pineapple chicken bites are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The sweet and tangy pineapple sauce is a perfect complement to the tender chicken and vegetables. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
