Equipment
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix the pineapple juice, vegetable oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, and pepper. Place chicken in the bowl, and coat with the mixture. Cover, and marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours (I like mine to marinate for about 8 hours).
- Heat grill to medium-high. Place chicken on grill until just cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per side).
- Place pineapple slices on grill and cook until grill marks appear (just a minute or two per side).
- Remove chicken and pineapple from grill and place one slice of pineapple on each chicken breast. Sprinkle green onions on top.
Notes
Don't have a grill? That's okay! You can make this chicken in your oven:
- Preheat the oven broiler.
- Place chicken on a baking sheet. Broil 5 minutes on each side in the preheated oven, or until no longer pink and juices run clear.
- *Make sure that you discard any leftover marinade.
