### Ingredients:- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts- 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)- 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce- 1/4 cup soy sauce- 2 tablespoons honey- 1 tablespoon olive oil- 3 garlic cloves, minced- 1 teaspoon grated ginger- 1 bell pepper, sliced- 1 medium onion, sliced- 1 cup broccoli florets- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)- 2 green onions, chopped (optional)- Salt and pepper to taste- Cooked rice for serving (optional)

### Instructions:

1. Marinate the chicken: - In a large bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. - Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. - Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.

2. Cook the chicken and vegetables: - Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. - Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and cook the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). - Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and keep warm. - In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and bell pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften. - Add the broccoli florets and pineapple chunks to the skillet. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp.

3. Combine and glaze: - Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the vegetables and pineapple. Bring it to a simmer and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. - Slice the cooked chicken breasts and return them to the skillet, tossing to coat them in the teriyaki glaze.

4. Serve: - Transfer the chicken, vegetables, and pineapple to serving plates. - Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired. - Serve hot over a bed of cooked rice for a complete meal.
