Teriyaki Glazed Pineapple Rice

 

Teriyaki Glazed Pineapple Rice

This dish works great as a side served with chicken or shrimp, or as a vegetarian friendly meal with tofu or cashews added for extra protein. 

What you need:

4 Cups Brown/Wild rice, cooked (Recipe here: Perfect Slow Cooker Rice)

2 Cups Pineapple Chunks

½ Cup Teriyaki Sauce

Cookie Sheet

Mixing Bowl

To Make:

Pre-Heat Oven to 400 degrees.

In a mixing bowl add the teriyaki sauce and pineapple chunks, stir to combine.

Place the teriyaki coated pineapple chunks on the cookie sheet and roast approximately 10-15 minutes, or until teriyaki sauce begins to thicken and caramelize.

Add the cooked pineapple to the cooked rice and stir to combine.

Enjoy! 

*Tip: If you’d prefer not to buy pre-made teriyaki sauce it is simple to make! In a bowl combine equal parts soy sauce and pineapple juice, add a dash of rice vinegar, grated ginger to taste, and a dash of sesame oil. If you prefer a sweeter teriyaki sauce you can add brown sugar to taste as well.
