Teriyaki Glazed Chicken Skewers with Pineapple
Teriyaki Glazed Chicken Skewers with Pineapple is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a perfect combination of sweet and savory flavors that will leave your taste buds wanting more. The key to making this dish is to marinate the chicken in the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before grilling it on skewers with fresh pineapple.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 12 skewers
To start, combine the teriyaki sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and sesame oil in a bowl. Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the chicken and pineapple onto the skewers, alternating between the two. Grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the pineapple is slightly charred.
While the skewers are grilling, make the glaze by combining the cornstarch and water in a small bowl. Heat the remaining marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once the marinade comes to a boil, add the cornstarch mixture and stir until the glaze thickens.
Once the skewers are done, brush them with the glaze and serve immediately.
This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a weeknight dinner. The teriyaki glaze adds a sweet and savory flavor to the chicken, while the fresh pineapple adds a juicy and refreshing taste. The appearance of the dish is colorful and appetizing, with the golden brown chicken and the bright yellow pineapple.
