Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breast, cut into 1.5-inch chunks
  • 1.5 cups fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Thread chicken and pineapple chunks alternately onto 4 metal or soaked wooden skewers.

  2. 2

    Brush skewers generously with teriyaki sauce on all sides.

  3. 3

    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high until a drop of water sizzles and evaporates immediately.

  4. 4

    Grill skewers 3-4 minutes per side without moving, turning once—chicken should be cooked through and caramelized.

  5. 5

    Brush with remaining teriyaki sauce during the last minute of cooking.

  6. 6

    Rest 2 minutes on a plate, then serve hot.

Tools you’ll need

  • 4 metal or wooden skewers (soak wooden skewers 30 min before grilling)
  • grill or grill pan
  • pastry brush
