Hawaiian Chicken with Pineapple

Up to 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (for more than this, double the rest of the ingredients)
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup pineapple juice (I use juice from the can of pineapple slices I'll serve on the side)
2 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
1 T. sesame oil
2 T sesame seeds

Flour chicken. Fry a little olive oil to light brown, using an ovenproof skillet or cast iron skillet. Mix soy sauce, sugar, garlic, oil, sesame seeds and onions. Pour sauce over chicken and stir to coat. Place in a 350 oven:
For "chunks" of boneless chicken, 10 minutes
For "chicken tenders", 15 to 20 minutes
For boneless breast filets, 25 minutes

Serve with rice and pineapple on the side.

Thank you!!

I have continued to "tweak" this recipe and have found that if you don't want to heat up your kitchen by turning on the oven, you can do the whole thing on the stovetop in your heavy skillet. I was glad to find that it tastes just as good either way, since this dish is a family favorite.
