For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade or directly to the stir-fry. Serve over steamed rice or quinoa for a complete and satisfying meal. Fresh pineapple can be used in place of canned. Be sure to use about 12 ounces of pineapple chunks and reserve about 1/4 cup of juice. Add other vegetables like snap peas, carrots, or broccoli for more nutrients and color.
