Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to cut the chicken into even-sized pieces. This will help ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours. This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender.
  • Use a non-stick baking dish or line a regular baking dish with parchment paper. This will help prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan.
  • Bake the chicken at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for a short period of time (20-25 minutes). This will help the chicken to cook quickly and evenly without drying out.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular options include rice, potatoes, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Baked Polynesian chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it can be served with a variety of sides. The marinade gives the chicken a sweet and tangy flavor, and the crispy breadcrumb topping adds a nice crunch.
