Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup teriyaki sauce, ⅓ cup pure pineapple juice, ¼ cup soy sauce, 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger, and 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil until fully combined.
- Place 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken into a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it’s thoroughly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Prepare your grilling surface with a light coat of oil to prevent sticking.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and it has nice char marks.
- Add the fresh pineapple rings to the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until caramelized and marked.
- In a small saucepan, bring the reserved marinade to a boil over medium heat, allowing it to simmer for 5-6 minutes until it thickens slightly.
- To assemble, start with a base layer of cooked white rice on a plate, layer the grilled chicken on top, followed by a grilled pineapple ring. Drizzle the thickened glaze over the stack, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes
Cook chicken and pineapple separately in airtight containers for better texture upon reheating.
