Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 chicken breast boneless skinless
  • 6 ounces pineapple juice 3/4 cup
  • ½ cup soy sauce reduced-sodium
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ¼ cup canola oil or olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • pineapple for grilling, fresh
  • rice for serving, hot

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the pineapple juice, soy sauce, molasses, brown sugar, oil, vinegar and garlic powder. Whisk to combine. Add the chicken breasts to a large ziploc bag and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours.
  2. Drain the liquid. Grill the chicken over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through. When the chicken has about 4-5 minutes left to cook, add the rings of fresh pineapple and grill for 2 minutes per side.
  3. Transfer the chicken to a plate or cutting board, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice the chicken into strips. Serve over hot, cooked rice with grilled pineapple.

Notes

  • Pineapple: if you don’t have fresh pineapple or choose not to use it, you can use a large can of pineapple chunks, draining and reserving the liquid for the marinade, and serving the pineapple chunks alongside the grilled chicken.
  • Rice: I like to serve this teriyaki chicken with baked brown rice (cooked with chicken broth – and after baking, I stir in toasted almonds and sliced green onions).
