Hawaiian Teriyaki Chicken

LARavenscroft's Note:

Got this from a friend from my church. This is not a recipe that you would make for dinner unless you have several hours before dinner time. It's well worth the wait and is excellent served over cooked rice.

Yum Yum Yum! The chicken was so tender, the pineapple was excellent on top. I'd have given it 5 stars but it was a little too sweet - next time I'll cut some of the sugar. I'm not looking forward to washing the gooey dish!

Used 4 large chicken breasts for this recipe, & was happy with the results! Did enjoy the use of pineapple here, & it was all served over brown rice! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my teammates in the Aus/NZ Special Recipe Swap #19]

This recipe was made for the Aussie/Kiwi Swap #16. This recipe was easy to make with ingredients on hand. It was so tender, falling off the bone practically. My husband said, "This is a Keeper!" I was burning my mouth; it tasted so great I couldn't wait for it to cool off!! I will definitely make this again for friends and family. Thanks for sharing!
