Eating this reminds me of living in Hawaii and the wonderful teriyaki plate lunches. I serve this to picky kids and they love it. Took it to potluck Christmas with some steamed white rice and everyone wanted the recipe. Super easy - taking the excess fat off is well worth it, especially if you're lucky enough to have left overs.
