Ingredients
- 3 lbs chicken thighs boneless & skinless
- 1 cup pineapple juice unsweetened
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger minced
Instructions
- Cut off any excess fat from the chicken. Place it in a large bowl. In a separate dish, combine all the remaining ingredients. Whisk to combine.
- Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade to use for basting later. Pour the remaining sauce over the chicken, let it marinate for at least 5 hours or leave it overnight.
- Once the chicken is fully marinated, preheat the grill to medium high heat. Place chicken on to the grill. Optionally, save the raw marinade to make into a dipping sauce.
- Grill chicken on each side for about 8 minutes, baste occasionally with the reserved 1/4 cup of marinade. Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165F. Serve right away.
