GRILLED HAWAIIAN CHICKEN



Grilled Hawaiian Chicken image

This is a family favorite! Every time I serve this chicken, I get rave reviews! I serve this over coconut rice garnished with green onions. It makes a beautiful presentation. To make coconut rice, simply replace half of the water with coconut milk and cook rice as directed. This recipe makes a lot of marinade. If I am serving more people I will increase the amount of chicken and keep the recipe for the marinade the same. Goes really well with steamed broccoli or edamame.

HAWAIIAN GRILLED CHICKEN



Hawaiian Grilled Chicken image

This has become a family favorite! The key to the delicious flavor is letting the chicken sit in the marinade overnight, and then letting the cooked chicken sit in the green onion-butter bath! Suggested sides would be steamed rice, green salad, and sliced fresh pineapple for a meal that will transport you to the islands!

Provided by Laura Dietz Mulholland

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Thigh Recipes

Time 4h45m

Yield 10

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for best results. If using chicken breasts, pound them to an even thickness to ensure even cooking.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and pineapple juice helps infuse it with flavor and tenderize it.
  • Use a grill or grill pan: Grilling the chicken gives it a delicious charred flavor. If you don't have a grill, you can use a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Cook the chicken until it's cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Hawaiian chicken is traditionally served with rice and pineapple, but you can also serve it with other sides like vegetables, mashed potatoes, or salad.

Conclusion:
