Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken thighs (boneless and skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (ensure it’s Halal)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (ensure it’s Halal)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ginger (fresh and grated)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons green onions (chopped for garnish)
  • sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for cooking)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by cutting your boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Whisk Together the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, grated ginger, and minced garlic.

  6. Add the Pineapple: Stir in the pineapple chunks and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. Final Touches: If desired, add a splash more teriyaki sauce for extra stickiness.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
