Pineapple-Teriyaki Chicken

(from bjs2005’s recipe box)

Categories: Chicken, Entree

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup dry sherry or chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1-20 oz. can pineapple rings, plus 1/3 cup juice from the can
  • 4 large boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 pounds), trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon butter

Directions

  1. Whisk sherry, soy sauce, brown sugar and the 1/3 cup pineapple juice in a large bowl. Add pineapple rings and chicken and gently stir to coat. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, preheat grill to medium-high.

  3. Remove the chicken and pineapple from the marinade and pat dry; reserve the marinade. Oil the grill rack. Grill the chicken and pineapple until the chicken is cooked through and the pineapple is marked, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

  4. Whisk the reserved marinade and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook, whisking, until reduced and thickened, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in butter. Serve the chicken and pineapple drizzled with the sauce.
