Huli Huli Chicken
Huli Huli simply means to turn quickly. Our Hawaiian barbecued chicken served with Grilled Pineapple, Sticky Rice, and Asian Slaw is Onolicious!
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 4 lbs. skinless chicken thighs (about 10-12 pieces)
- MARINADE
- 1 c. unsweetened pineapple juice
- 1/2 c. low sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 c. dark brown sugar
- 1/3 c. ketchup
- 1/4 c. chicken broth
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tsp. fresh ginger root finely grated
- Sliced green onions for garnish
Instructions
- MARINADE: In a medium bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, chicken broth, ginger and garlic. Reserve 1 cup of marinade for basting.
- Add the chicken thighs and marinade to a gallon Ziploc bag; marinate at least 3 hours or overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high. Grill chicken for 16-20 minutes turning every 4 minutes to baste with marinade. Remove from heat to a serving plate. Garnish with green onions if desired.
Notes
Cook's Note: I like to make a separate batch of marinade, heat it in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves and it starts to thicken, then pour it over the sticky rice.
