Today’s Recipe: Spicy BBQ Pineapple Chicken

In the mood for a little taste of summer with a kick of heat? Today, I’m sharing my recipe for Spicy BBQ Pineapple Chicken. This dish combines the sweetness of pineapple with the smoky flavors of BBQ sauce and a hint of spicy jalapeños to create a mouthwatering and unique combination that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (500g)
  • 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into chunks (600g)
  • 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce (250ml)
  • 2 fresh jalapeño peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil (30ml)
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill pan
  • tongs
  • knife
  • cutting board

Start by preheating a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then place them on the grill pan. Cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until they are fully cooked and have nice grill marks.

In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped jalapeños, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the BBQ sauce and pineapple chunks, and let it simmer for another 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Once the chicken is cooked through, transfer it to a plate and top with the spicy BBQ pineapple sauce. Serve hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite.

This Spicy BBQ Pineapple Chicken dish weighs approximately 1350g once cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving is about 337.5g and contains approximately 400 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken thighs in the BBQ sauce for an hour before grilling to enhance the flavor even more.

I hope you give this recipe a try and feel free to customize it to your liking. It’s a fun and flavorful dish that’s sure to become a new favorite at your table. Enjoy!
