Directions

Marinate

  1. If you are using wooden skewers, start by soaking them in water. This will prevent them from burning too much in the oven or on the grill.

  2. Place the cut up chicken and vegetables in a large bowl or plastic ziplock bag.

  3. Whisk together the pineapple juice and cornstarch. Then add in the soy sauce, honey, oil and garlic. Mix well then pour over the chicken and vegetables. Allow to sit in the marinade at least 10 minutes or overnight.

Prepare the Skewers

  1. Heat the oven to broil on high. Line a baking sheet with foil.

  2. Thread the chicken and vegetables onto the skewers and place onto the prepared baking sheet.

  3. Broil on one side till the edges start to char, about seven minutes, then flip the skewers over carefully and broil on the other side till slightly charred.

  4. Remove from oven and serve with brown rice.

  5. Alternatively, place the chicken and vegetables into a baking pan without the skewers and broil.

Prepare the Rice

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. Bake covered tightly for one hour. Remove from oven and let sit an additional 10 minutes covered before fluffing with a fork.

It says round brown rice on the package אורז מלא עגול. Sometimes I can’t find it so when I do I stock up.

You can alternatively try sushi rice- Renee says they are very similar. She has found brown round rice at Rami Levy https://www.rami-levy.co.il/he/online/search?item=7290100700242

I would recommend still using pineapple juice.
