Preparation Steps

Slice the kielbasa into 1/2-inch chunks and set aside on a clean plate.
Drain the pineapple chunks thoroughly, reserving 1 tablespoon of the juice for the glaze.
In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, sweet chili sauce, honey, and reserved pineapple juice until smooth.
Heat the cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the kielbasa for 3-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
In the same skillet, add the pineapple chunks and pour the glaze over, stirring gently to coat.
Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 3-5 minutes until the glaze thickens.
Serve warm using toothpicks for easy serving.
