Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken Meatballs

There’s just something about the combination of chicken, pineapple, and teriyaki that just *clicks*. Whether it’s in the form of a grilled chicken sandwich topped with pineapple slices and teriyaki sauce, or teriyaki-tinged chicken fried rice with little chunks of pineapple, this unlikely trio of sweet, savory, and succulent elements always keeps us coming back for more. In fact, we recently went back to the supplier of our ever-popular Chicken Meatballs with one request: give us your best version of chicken, pineapple, and teriyaki in a delectable, dippable, pop-in-your-mouth-able form. And when they came back with these Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken Meatballs, our tasting panel immediately knew that we had something special.

Now available in our refrigerated cases on an everyday basis, Trader Joe’s Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken Meatballs are made with all-natural ground chicken, are certified gluten free, and arrive fully cooked, so that all you have to do is heat them up in the oven, microwave, or air fryer, then serve. On their own, they make a great savory snack or appetizer (especially when paired with something tangy to dip them in). They’re also awesome when tossed with your favorite noodles (we’re particularly partial to our Squiggly Noodles), and make a mean meatball sub with our Sandwich Rolls, too.
