Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (preferably fresh, or canned, drained)
- 0.25 cup A1 steak sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons green onions (chopped, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon white sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
- 4 cups cooked white rice (for serving)
Instructions
Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the pineapple chunks. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly caramelized. Remove and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together A1 steak sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes to form the sauce.
Return the chicken thighs to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Cover the skillet with a lid and simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F).
During the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the caramelized pineapple chunks back to the skillet to heat through.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve the Saucy Chickenaloha A1 hot over a bed of cooked white rice for the perfect tropical-inspired meal.
