    Huli Huli Chicken - Hawaiian grilled chicken glazed with pineapple ginger sauce

    Grilled chicken basted with a sweet pineapple-soy-ginger marinade.

    Rotisserie legend, backyard edition

    ‘Huli’ means ‘turn’ in Hawaiian — this chicken gets turned and basted until the sweet-tangy glaze lacquers into sticky char.

    Step by stepInstructions

    1. Whisk all the marinade ingredients together.
    2. Coat the chicken in half the marinade and refrigerate 2-4 hours; reserve the rest for basting.
    3. Preheat a grill to medium (or oven to 375°F).
    4. Grill the chicken 30-40 minutes, turning and basting with the reserved marinade every 10 minutes, until cooked through (165°F) and lacquered.
    5. Rest 10 minutes and serve with rice and mac salad.

    💡 Chef tips & storage

    Baste only with the reserved portion — using marinade that touched raw chicken is unsafe. The last few minutes of char make the magic.
