A delightful grilled chicken recipe glazed with caramelized pineapple, bringing together savory and sweet flavors perfect for summer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Mix the Marinade: In a bowl, mix soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper until everything is well combined.
  2. Marinate the Chicken and Pineapple: Add chicken breasts and pineapple chunks to the marinade, making sure they are well coated. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  3. Preheat the Grill: While the chicken is marinating, preheat the grill to medium-high heat, allowing it to reach the right temperature for a perfect sear.
  4. Grill the Chicken: Place the marinated chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  5. Grill the Pineapple: In the last few minutes of grilling, add the pineapple chunks to the grill, allowing them to caramelize and develop beautiful grill marks.
  6. Serve and Garnish: Once everything is grilled to perfection, serve the chicken garnished with grilled pineapple and chopped green onions for a fresh touch.

Notes

For extra tenderness, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness before marinating. Don’t skip the marinade time; letting the chicken sit deepens its flavor.
