5. Check for Doneness:
- To ensure the chicken is fully cooked, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
6. Optional Thickening:
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can thicken the remaining teriyaki sauce. In a small saucepan, heat the sauce over medium heat. In a separate bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with a little water to make a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering sauce, stirring constantly until it thickens. Remove from heat.
7. Serving:
- Once the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a serving plate. Pour the thickened or remaining teriyaki sauce over the chicken.
- Garnish with sesame seeds, sliced green onions, and pineapple chunks for a Hawaiian touch.
This Hawaiian-style teriyaki chicken is best served hot, accompanied by steamed rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal. The combination of sweet, tangy teriyaki sauce with tender chicken makes it a favorite among many. Enjoy this flavorful dish with friends and family!
