Grilled Pineapple Marinated Chicken (Edit recipe)

Growing up, my mom used to always make grilled pineapple marinated chicken. It was always one of our favorite meals as kids and she still makes it to this day. As I’ve gotten older, I recreated the recipe to accommodate for some of my tastes and dietary preferences. This Whole30, Grilled Pineapple Marinated Chicken is sure to be a fan favorite and is so simple to make.

Ingredients

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. In a large mixing bowl, add chicken breasts.
  2. Add all ingredients to the mixing bowl, making sure chicken breasts are fully covered. When adding pineapple juice, add all of the juice, but not the actual pineapple rings.
  3. Mix all ingredients together, I like to use my hands.
  4. Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and refridgerate for at least 6 hours, up to overnight.
  5. Before grilling, briefly set on paper towel or remove excess marinade prior to grilling. Grill until internal temperature is 170°F. Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes prior to slicing.
  6. Grill pineapple rings and green onions and serve everything over rice (if not on Whole30.)

Notes

Marinate chicken for at least 6 hours. For best results, marinate overnight up to 24 hours.
