Description

A celebration of vibrant flavors with grilled chicken, sweet pineapple, and teriyaki sauce perfect for gatherings or weeknight dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
  • 2 Tbsp Montreal steak seasoning
  • 1 pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
  • 2 avocados, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce

Instructions

  1. Cook the rice according to package directions; once done, stir in the green onions for added brightness.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat for that perfect sear.
  3. Cut the chicken in half crosswise, and pound it to a 1/2-inch thickness in a zip-top plastic bag using your hand or a meat mallet.
  4. Brush the chicken with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with Montreal steak seasoning.
  5. Grill the chicken, covered, for 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Slice thinly.
  6. Brush the pineapple slices and red onion slices with the remaining oil. Grill them, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until charred.
  7. Divvy up the rice into 6 shallow bowls. Top each with sliced chicken, grilled pineapple, grilled red onion, and fresh avocado. Drizzle with teriyaki sauce.

Notes

For a vegan option, swap chicken for marinated tofu or tempeh. Adjust Montreal seasoning based on taste preferences.
