Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into rings
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix 1 cup of teriyaki sauce, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon of grated ginger to make the marinade.
- Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour half of the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the pineapple rings with vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill the pineapple rings for 2-3 minutes on each side until they have grill marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the used marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
- During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken with the remaining marinade to create a glaze.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve the teriyaki chicken with the grilled pineapple rings, garnish with sesame seeds and green onions, and enjoy!
Teriyaki Chicken with Grilled Pineapple is a popular Japanese dish that has gained worldwide acclaim. The dish originated in Japan, where it was traditionally prepared by marinating chicken in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce before grilling it to perfection. The addition of grilled pineapple adds a delightful tropical twist to the dish, complementing the rich flavors of the teriyaki chicken. In recent years, this dish has become a staple in Japanese and fusion restaurants around the globe. Renowned chefs like Nobu Matsuhisa have put their own spin on the classic recipe, incorporating their unique flair and culinary expertise. For the best version of this dish, look for restaurants that use high-quality chicken and fresh, ripe pineapple. The key to achieving the perfect balance of flavors lies in the teriyaki sauce, which should be rich, tangy, and slightly caramelized from the grilling process. Alternatively, home cooks can experiment with different methods of preparing the dish, such as using a charcoal grill for added smokiness or infusing the teriyaki sauce with additional ingredients like ginger or garlic for a more complex flavor profile. Whether enjoyed in a fine dining establishment or prepared at home, Teriyaki Chicken with Grilled Pineapple is a delightful culinary experience that showcases the harmony of sweet and savory flavors.
