Too sweet for my taste, however, DH and DS are RAVING OVER IT RIGHT NOW! Made brown and white rice with tiny diced veggies in it and made a frozen veg mix.. I DID use only 3 Tbsp butter and 1/4 cup sugar AND, I did thicken it up a bit with a cornstarch slurry. THANKS.. good repeat dish!

Made this for my 86 yr old Father who is a picky eater. Also made brown rice as a side. I spooned the sauce on the chicken and the rice. He said the pineapple sauce made the chicken breast and rice worth eating. That's the closest I am ever coming to getting a compliment from him :)

I made this a couple of weeks ago & we loved it. I told my daughter about it & she said she wants to make it now, too. I wouldn't change a thing in the recipe, which is unusual for me.
