How to Make Polynesian Honey Pineapple Chicken
- In a saucepan, combine 1 cup pineapple juice, ½ cup honey, ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce, 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low.
- Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes, or until the marinade is reduced by ¼ (to about ¾ cup).
- Let the marinade cool completely to room temperature.
- Divide the cooled marinade in half. Place chicken pieces (about 2 lbs) in a large plastic bag or shallow dish.
- Pour ¾ of the cooled marinade over the chicken. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or up to 24 hours.
- Remove chicken from marinade, reserving ¼ of the marinade for basting.
- Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill the chicken, covered, for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), brushing occasionally with the reserved marinade during the first 30 minutes. Ensure chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.
