Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken thighs bone-in or boneless
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

. Prepare the Marinade

  • In a bowl, add pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup and honey. Mix well until smooth. Add garlic, ginger and vinegar. Stir again. This sauce gives sweet and tangy flavor to the chicken.

Marinate the Chicken

  • Place chicken in the bowl or a zip bag. Pour marinade over it. Make sure all pieces are covered well. Let it sit for at least 1 hour. For best taste, keep it in the fridge overnight.

Preheat the Grill

  • Heat your grill to medium heat. Lightly oil the surface to stop sticking. A hot grill helps cook chicken evenly. It also gives a nice smoky flavor that makes this dish special.

Cook the Chicken

  • Place chicken on the grill. Cook each side for about 6–8 minutes. Turn it using tongs. Brush extra marinade while cooking. This keeps the chicken juicy and full of flavor.

Check for Doneness

  • Make sure chicken is fully cooked inside. It should be tender and not pink. The outside should look slightly caramelized. This gives that classic Huli Huli look and taste.

Rest and Serve

  • Remove chicken from the grill. Let it rest for 5 minutes. This keeps juices inside. Serve warm with your favorite sides. Enjoy every bite with family or friends.

Notes

  • Use chicken breasts if you prefer lean meat
  • Add chili flakes for a spicy kick
  • Grill pineapple slices for extra flavor
  • Use oven if you don’t have a grill
  • Marinate longer for deeper taste
