Huli Huli Chicken Thighs


  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings
  • Diet: Gluten-Free

Description

Delightful Hawaiian grilled chicken with a sweet and savory marinade, perfect for summer barbecues.


Ingredients

  • Chicken thighs (bone-in or boneless)
  • Pineapple juice
  • Soy sauce
  • Brown sugar
  • Fresh ginger (grated)
  • Garlic (minced)
  • Black pepper
  • Green onions (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and black pepper. Mix well to create your marinade.
  2. Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and let them soak for at least 30 minutes to an hour for deeper flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Once preheated, remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off.
  5. Grill the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes on each side, ensuring they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
  6. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, swap soy sauce for tamari. Marinate overnight for the best flavor.
