Ingredients

Rice Base:

400 g long-grain rice

720 ml chicken broth

60 ml soy sauce

15 ml toasted sesame oil

1.25 ml garlic powder

Shrimp Marinade:

450 g shrimp, peeled and deveined

60 ml teriyaki sauce

15 ml honey

2.5 ml freshly grated ginger

Fruit Component:

425 g pineapple chunks, drained

Instructions

Cook the Rice:
In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Stir in rice, soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic powder. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20–25 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Marinate the Shrimp:
In a bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, honey, and grated ginger. Add shrimp, toss to coat, and marinate in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.

Grill the Shrimp:
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill shrimp 2–3 minutes per side until opaque and lightly charred.

Assemble the Stack:
Spoon a layer of rice onto each plate. Top with grilled shrimp and pineapple chunks, stacking for presentation.

Serve:
Serve immediately while warm, optionally garnished with green onions or sesame seeds.

Notes

Add red pepper flakes to the marinade for a spicy kick.

Swap rice for quinoa or couscous for variation.

Serve with steamed vegetables or a crisp green salad for a complete meal.

For extra flavor, finish with a drizzle of extra teriyaki sauce or a squeeze of lime.
