Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.5 cup Pineapple juice
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, lime juice, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until the sugar dissolves completely and the ingredients are fully combined.
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are fully coated. If using a bag, seal it tightly and massage gently to distribute the marinade.
Refrigerate the chicken in the marinade for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, for the best flavor infusion.
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and discard the leftover marinade.
Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Adjust cooking time depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing or serving.
Serve with steamed rice, grilled pineapple slices, or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
