Hawaiian Chicken Recipe

This Hawaiian chicken dish combines sweet and savory flavors, perfect for a tropical-inspired meal. Serve it over rice or with a side of grilled pineapple for a complete island experience.


Ingredients (Serves 4):

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade:

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
  2. Marinate the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated.
    • Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to let the flavors absorb.
  3. Cook the Chicken:

    • Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
    • Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  4. Make the Sauce:

    • Pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
    • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the boiling marinade, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
    • Add the pineapple chunks and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve:

    • Place the cooked chicken on a plate, spoon the thickened sauce and pineapple chunks over the top, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve over steamed white or brown rice for a complete meal.
  • Pair with a side of sautéed vegetables, like bell peppers and snap peas, for added color and crunch.
  • For a tropical flair, grill pineapple slices and serve alongside the chicken.

Enjoy this sweet, savory, and tangy Hawaiian Chicken recipe that brings a taste of the islands to your table! 🌺🍍🍗
