Seasoned with ginger, almonds and colorful fruit, this chicken is a special main dish for a crowd. I dreamed up this economical recipe one day when chicken thighs were on sale. I served it to guests and they loved it.-Marilou Robinson, Portland, Oregon

This recipe was a disaster. The chicken was tough and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not a big fan of Polynesian food, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The chicken was tender and the sauce was flavorful. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe is a great way to add some flavor to your chicken. The sauce is tangy and flavorful, and the chicken is cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this recipe.

The chicken was a little dry, but the sauce was very good. I would recommend using a different cut of chicken, such as boneless, skinless chicken breasts.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken that I shredded and used in this recipe. It turned out great!

I'm not a fan of pineapple, so I omitted it from the recipe. The chicken was still very good, but I think it would have been better with the pineapple.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked in about 15 minutes. The sauce was delicious and I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out perfectly. The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste, but that's easily fixed by adding less sugar.
