Create 2 Meals In 1 Recipe

This Create 2 Meals In 1 Recipe is one of my favorites.  First, I suggest soaking your skewer stick in water, for at least 30 minutes, to prevent burning.  In this recipe, I use chicken tenderloins.  It may cost a couple cents extra, but it is a big time saver.  Remaining consistent, slice your chicken into the same size chunks.  Not too much larger than your pineapple chunks.  This way the kabobs cook evenly.  This can be a family involved activity.  My children like putting the kabobs together, and it saves time for you too.  If you are on a time restraint, you do not need to marinade the ingredients for the kabobs, but I highly recommend it.   You are only using part of the Teriyaki marinade for the kabobs, make sure you refrigerate the rest for the stir fry.  When finished, take the kabobs apart, and place the ingredients in a container to refrigerate.  Then you are all ready to make your second meal.  Instead of using water to cook the rice, I substitute it for  coconut milk.  This gives the rice a nice flavor and is compatible with the flavor of the teriyaki.

ENJOY!
