1/2 C. white sugar
1/2 C. soy sauce
1/4 C. cider vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/4 tsp. fresh ginger, grated (or 1/2 tsp. ground ginger)
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 T. cornstarch
1 T. cold water

Combine the first six ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Combine the cornstarch and water, set aside. When the sauce comes to a boil (it will happen pretty quickly) add the cornstarch mixture and stir until the sauce is thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and set aside.

1 package chicken tenders, cut into bite sized pieces
1 package bacon (not thick-sliced), cut into thirds lengthwise
1 fresh pineapple, cut into chunks about the same size as the chicken pieces

If using bamboo skewers soak them in water before using so they don’t burn on the grill. Wrap each piece of chicken with a piece of bacon and slide onto a skewer, follow with a piece of pineapple. Repeat three more times per skewer. place in a 9×13 baking dish. When all of the ingredients have been used up pour the Teriyaki sauce over them , reserving about 1/4 cup. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, no longer than 8. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and baste with some of the reserved sauce. Cook about 7 minutes, flip, baste again and cook another 7 minutes.
