Easy One Pot Teriyaki Chicken with Pineapple Rice dripping with flavor and cooked all in the same skillet! Teriyaki Chicken + pineapple + rice = a match made in heaven. The marinade doubles as the Glaze (no double work) for incredibly juicy chicken with flavor through and through - not just on the surface. The Teriyaki Glaze seeps into the rice for slightly tangy, sweet, teriyaki pineapple rice that perfectly compliments your chicken. It doesn't get any better.

Ingredients
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
chopped green pepper
3/4 cups long-grain white rice
1/2 can crushed pineapple
olive oil
1/2 c Teriyaki Sauce
Instructions
- Whisk together 1/3 c Teriyaki Sauce plus 1 tablespoon olive oil and marinate chicken for 1 hour, or up to overnight.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Let excess marinade drip off chicken before you add to skillet. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes on each side (3 minutes on each side for thighs) or until nicely browned. Reduce to a simmer then stir in crushed pineapple and green pepper (or side veggie of choice). Cook until the chicken is almost done. About 8 - 10 minutes.
- Stir in rice. Cover and continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes or until rice is heated and chicken is cooked through.
- Brush chicken with additional Teriyaki Glaze and season rice with freshly cracked salt and pepper. Add chili-garlic sauce for some heat if desired.
