This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I simply shredded the chicken and added it to the sauce.

I marinated the chicken overnight and it was so tender and juicy. I highly recommend doing this if you have the time.

I'm not a fan of BBQ sauce, but this recipe changed my mind. The sauce is so flavorful and it pairs perfectly with the chicken.

I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly in the time specified.

This chicken is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I've made it for parties, potlucks, and even just for a weeknight dinner.

I'm not a big fan of pineapple, so I omitted it from the recipe. The chicken was still delicious.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was so moist and the sauce was amazing. I served it with rice and vegetables and it was a hit with my family.

This chicken was so flavorful and juicy. The tropical BBQ sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I will definitely be making this again!
