Preparation Steps
1. Cook the Rice
Rinse the white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a rice cooker or pot, combine 2 cups of rice with 2 1/2 cups of water. Cook according to the rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes.
2. Prepare the Chicken
Marinate the teriyaki chicken in a store-bought or homemade teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes. Grill or bake the teriyaki chicken until cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side on the grill.
3. Make the Huli-Huli Chicken (if desired)
Marinate huli-huli chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger for at least 30 minutes. Grill until cooked, basting with the marinade as it cooks.
4. Prepare the Macaroni Salad
Cook 1 cup of elbow macaroni according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water. In a bowl, combine the macaroni with 1 cup of mayonnaise, 1/2 cup of diced celery, 1/2 cup of grated carrots, 1/4 cup of chopped green onions, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
