Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 thin sliced or flattened Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts fresh or thawed
- ¼ cup Soy Sauce
- 3 tablespoons packed Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
- 1 Garlic Clove minced
- ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
- 20 ounce Dole Pineapple Slices can (use juice only for marinade… leave pineapple rings in the can and set aside to grill later)
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients, including juice only from Pineapple Slices can, and stir.
- Add mixture to freezer Ziploc bag, then place in the refrigerator to marinate overnight, turning and flipping a few times. Or… place directly in the freezer, for some pre-marinated chicken later! (just pull out of the freezer, and defrost in the fridge… letting all of the yummy flavors soak into the chicken).
- When ready to cook, remove chicken from the bag, toss the marinade out, and get ready to grill!
- Grill your pre-marinated chicken on the grill outside (8 minutes on each side at 400 degrees or until internal temperature of your chicken is 165 degrees), or on a grill pan inside.
- Take the pineapple rings that you set aside, and grill those, too! (yum!)
- Serve with a side of brown rice or white rice, and ENJOY!
Notes
- To flatten your chicken breast to an even thickness, simply place it between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Then using the flat side of a meat mallet or tenderizer, gently pound your chicken breast flat, starting in the middle.
