  2. Cook and stir for 2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Increase heat to medium-high. Add 2 cups of cooked rice (day-old is best) and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice is heated through and slightly crispy.
  5. Add 1 cup of diced fresh pineapple. Stir gently to combine and cook for another minute until heated through. Be careful not to overcook the pineapple.
  6. Garnish with 2 thinly sliced green onions and serve immediately as a delicious side dish with your favorite protein.
