Provided by Beth - Budget Bytes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

15 oz can pineapple chunks in juice ($1.29)
1 inch fresh ginger, grated ($0.11)
2 cloves garlic, minced ($0.16)
1/4 cup soy sauce ($0.40)
1 1/2 Tbsp rice vinegar ($0.17)
2 Tbsp brown sugar ($0.03)
1 Tbsp cornstarch ($0.04)
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1 1/4 lbs) ($2.35)
3 whole green onions, sliced ($0.33)
4 cups cooked rice ($0.69)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Drain the pineapple juice from the can to use in the sauce (it should be about 3/4 cup juice total). Save the pineapple chunks for later. Combine the pineapple juice, grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and cornstarch in a small sauce pot. Stir until everything is well combined and the cornstarch is dissolved. Cook the mixture over medium heat until it begins to boil and becomes thick and glossy. Turn the burner off and add the pineapple chunks to the sauce.
  • Coat a small casserole dish with non-stick spray. Arrange the chicken thighs in the dish so that they are not overlapping. Pour the pineapple teriyaki sauce over the chicken, allowing some to get under the chicken pieces.
  • Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Top the chicken with the sliced green onions. To serve, scoop one chicken thigh plus pineapple pieces and sauce over a bowl of cooked rice.

PINEAPPLE CHICKEN TERIYAKI



Pineapple Chicken Teriyaki image

I love Japanese chicken teriyaki, but I find most recipes lack a little pizzazz. This recipe has even the most finicky of eaters in my household cleaning their plates and coming back for seconds. Serve with steamed rice.

1 tablespoon dark molasses
½ tablespoon fresh ground ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic

2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • Use a good quality teriyaki sauce. A good teriyaki sauce will have a balanced flavor with a hint of sweetness.
  • Serve the chicken over rice or noodles. Teriyaki pineapple chicken is a great main dish to serve with rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Teriyaki pineapple chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the pineapple adds a touch of sweetness and acidity. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
