A vibrant dish that combines succulent chicken with creamy coconut rice, perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Chicken Breasts
  • 1/2 cup Pineapple Juice
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 inch Ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup Coconut Milk
  • 1 cup Rice (short-grain or jasmine)
  • Salt & Pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup Pineapple Slices
  • 2 Green Onions, chopped
