Instructions:
1️⃣ Marinate the Chicken:
In a bowl, mix the pineapple juice, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger. Add the chicken and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).
2️⃣ Sear the Chicken:
Heat sesame oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade!) and sear it for about 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown.
3️⃣ Make the Sauce:
Pour the reserved marinade into the pan. Add the pineapple chunks and bring everything to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for another 10-12 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4️⃣ Thicken the Sauce (Optional):
If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp water and stir it into the pan. Let it simmer for another minute until the sauce thickens.
5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!
Spoon the delicious Hawaiian-style chicken over steamed rice and garnish with sliced green onions & sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy the island flavors!
