Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken

This is a play off of a different recipe that I have, for Baked Hawaiin Teriyaki Chicken. The sauce is basically the same, but with a couple additions. The chicken isn't breaded in this recipe and is cooked entirely on the stovetop. So basically just me wanting the flavors but being too lazy to make my other recipe. This version was very tasty and speedy. I served it with Jasmine rice and steamed broccoli, with some extra sauce drizzled over everything. Sauce inspired by my original recipe, which was adapted from lifeinthelofthouse.com

I love to bake and to try out new recipes! I'm always on the lookout for simple dinners for busy weeknights. A lot of the recipes I post on here are ones I've found on Pinterest or from different bloggers, and that I've tried and really enjoyed, but I always reference to where I got the recipe from in the recipe description and the pictures are my own. If there's no source listed, then it's a rare recipe that I came up with. I have two wonderful kids and I hope to pass on my love of cooking and baking to them.
