In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, pineapple juice, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the Hawaiian glaze base.
In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth, then set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.
Add the broccoli florets, red bell pepper slices, carrot slices, sugar snap peas, and red onion to the skillet. Stir fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the pineapple chunks to the skillet and stir to combine.
Pour the prepared Hawaiian glaze sauce over the vegetables and stir well. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to heat through.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over the stir fry and toss to coat evenly.
Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced scallions before serving.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
