Hawaiian Bowls

Source:  sixsistersstuff.com



5 cups teriyaki marinade (Lowry's)
1 cup coconut milk*
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 red bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
1 orange bell pepper
2 zucchinis (sliced)
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
1 fresh pineapple (sliced into spears)
6 cups white rice (cooked)

DIRECTIONS:
In a gallon bag, combine teriyaki marinade and coconut milk.
Add the chicken breasts to the bag and marinade your chicken for 8-24 hours.
Heat grill to medium-high heat.
Saute the bell peppers and zucchini in a saucepan over medium-high heat until tender.
Meanwhile, place chicken on grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
For the pineapple glaze, combine brown sugar and honey in a small bowl until fully combined.
Place the pineapple spears on the grill and brush them with the brown sugar and honey mixture.
Rotate pineapple and continue to glaze with the mixture, and grill each side for about 2 minutes.
Once the chicken and pineapple are done grilling, remove from the grill.
Assemble bowls by filling each bowl with one cup of rice and top with vegetables, chicken, pineapple spears and drizzle on teriyaki sauce, as desired.

*I had such high hopes for this!  It needs tweaked though.  
*One - the chicken was good, but I don't know if the coconut milk added anything.  Next time I would just use the teriyaki marinade.  And probably half the bottle (Lowrys) would be enough.
*It was all so dry, and everything just stayed separate!  It definitely needed a teriyaki sauce to bring everything together.  Maybe just a cup or so of homemade teriyaki sauce?  
*The pineapple was so good!
