Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Make the Marinade: Whisk together teriyaki sauce, pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil until sugar dissolves.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken in a zip-top bag, pour marinade over, seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  3. Prepare the Grill: Remove chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling, preheat to medium-high heat.
  4. Grill the Chicken: Cook marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  5. Grill the Pineapple: Grill pineapple rings for 2-3 minutes per side until caramelized.
  6. Make the Glaze: Simmer reserved marinade in a saucepan for about 5–6 minutes until thickened.
  7. Assemble the Stack: Place rice on plates, layer with grilled chicken and pineapple, drizzle with glaze, and garnish.
