If you’re a fan of ramen noodles then you’ll definitely wanna make this recipe! Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken Over Noodles is a super quick and easy meal that the whole family will enjoy!
Okay yall, I’ve got another ramen noodle dish for you, Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken Over Noodles! Honestly, I was going to use another type of noodle for this recipe but the hubs had bought 2 huge boxes of ramen noodles, so that was my only option! Lol! Ever since I made my last ramen noodle recipe, which you can check out HERE, he’s been buying those tasty packs in bulk!
The thought for this recipe came to mind when I was shopping at my favorite grocery store and saw the most beautiful assortment of pineapple! They had chopped pineapple, sliced pineapple, pineapple chunks, pineapple kabobs, whole pineapple….yeah I know that I sound like Bubba from Forrest Gump, lol, but I was really mesmerized! ?
I grabbed a package of the pre-sliced pineapples, a package of boneless chicken, and headed towards the checkout. When I got home, I started prepping my chicken with this amazing teriyaki sauce (check it out here Red Shell Teriyaki Sauce 12 fl.oz.
) and the pineapple slices. It didn’t have enough of the pineapple flavor so I opened up a can of canned pineapple slices!
I already know what you’re thinking! Yes, I bought fresh pineapple with every intention of using it but I needed some of that pineapple juice in my marinade. Sure, I could’ve pureed or juiced the fresh pineapple, but I was rushing to get dinner on the table so that canned pineapple was my hero!
Once I added the pineapple juice to the marinade, it was complete and smelled sooo good! I marinated the chicken in half of the marinade for a few minutes and then cooked it in my skillet! I also added a few of those pineapple slices to give them a good sear! Once the chicken was done, I removed it from the skillet and added my veggies.
I sautéed those veggies until tender and tossed in my noodles and added the rest of the marinade. I placed the chicken on top and we were ready to eat! This meal will provide about 4 servings, so I was thrilled to know that I would have leftovers…but after my husband ate his 1st serving (in like 2 seconds lol), he went back for more, so we only had 1 little serving left! I took that for lunch and it tasted even more incredible the next day!!
