When you want a break from Thanksgiving and holiday food
try this Asian style bowl dinner
HHjr, the “Chef,” surprised me with this the other night,
so I don’t have photos of the process, but it’s really very simple
Marinate chicken in teriyaki sauce for several hours
We like this Veri Veri Teriyaki marinade from Soy Vay
It’s widely available {Wal-Mart, Whole Foods, Target}
or you can order it from Amazon here
I’ve also included a recipe
for an easy home made teriyaki marinade
at the end of this post
Grill the chicken until it’s cooked through,
putting the pineapple on the grill during the last few minutes
While the chicken is cooking prepare the rice and green beans
When everything is done,
cut the chicken into bite size pieces
Put the rice in individual pasta bowls,
top with chicken, pineapple and green beans
Serve it up and enjoy this flavorful dinner in a bowl!
