Exploring New Flavor Combinations: Sweet and Savory Grilled Pineapple Chicken

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and delicious recipe that combines sweet and savory flavors in a mouthwatering dish perfect for summer grilling. This Sweet and Savory Grilled Pineapple Chicken is a crowd-pleaser that will surely impress your family and friends at your next barbecue.

Ingredients:

  • chicken breasts
  • ripe pineapple
  • soy sauce
  • honey
  • garlic
  • ground ginger
  • salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill
  • tongs
  • mixing bowl
  • measuring cups and spoons
  • knife

Start by mixing soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl to create a marinade. Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

While the chicken is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once the grill is hot, remove the chicken from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side or until they are cooked through and have beautiful grill marks.

In the meantime, grill the pineapple slices for 2-3 minutes per side until they are caramelized and slightly charred.

To serve, place a grilled chicken breast on a plate and top it with a grilled pineapple slice. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the chicken and pineapple for an extra burst of flavor.

This Sweet and Savory Grilled Pineapple Chicken dish weighs approximately 1000g once cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 250g, and has an estimated calorie count of 300 per portion.

A clever tip for this recipe is to brush the pineapple slices with a mixture of honey and a pinch of chili flakes before grilling them for a spicy kick.

I hope you enjoy this unique fusion of flavors in my Sweet and Savory Grilled Pineapple Chicken recipe. Feel free to experiment with different marinades or toppings to make it your own! Happy grilling!
