Instructions
Creating Huli Huli Chicken is straightforward. Follow these simple steps for delicious results:
1. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and black pepper until well combined.
2. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken in a resealable plastic 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 30 minutes, or overnight for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4. Remove Chicken: Take the chicken out of the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
5. Grill Chicken: Place the chicken on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is nicely charred.
6. Rest Chicken: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
7. Garnish: Slice the chicken and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
