Main Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) and prepare a baking dish with cooking spray or parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, panko breadcrumbs, crushed pineapple, milk, soy sauce, green onions, garlic, ginger, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
- Form the mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs, yielding about 21 meatballs, and place them on the prepared baking dish.
- Bake the meatballs for approximately 15 minutes, or until golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- In a skillet, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and reserved pineapple juice over medium heat. Stir in garlic and ginger until sugar dissolves.
- Mix cornstarch with a bit of water to create a slurry, then stir into the skillet, simmering for about 5 minutes until thickened.
- Remove meatballs from the oven and toss in the teriyaki sauce until well coated.
- Serve immediately over rice or quinoa and garnish with additional green onions if desired.

Notes
For best results, ensure that the crushed pineapple is well-drained and use fresh ginger and garlic for enhanced flavor.
