I have been on the lookout for a recipe that I could make myself. Infusing pineapple with teriyaki was delicious! It is the perfect amount of sweet and salty and the longer you let your chicken marinate, the more delicious it becomes! This grilled recipe is now a staple at our house - everyone loves it. Serve with peas, rice, or salad.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple has a sweeter and more flavorful taste than canned pineapple. If using canned pineapple, be sure to drain it well and pat it dry before using.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of olive oil, soy sauce, honey, and spices helps to add flavor and tenderness.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade: Basting the chicken with the marinade during cooking helps to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Letting the chicken rest before serving allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.

Conclusion:

Grilled BBQ chicken and pineapple is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the pineapple adds a sweet and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
