0.5 cup soy sauce
0.5 cup brown sugar
0.25 cup ketchup
0.25 cup pineapple juice
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
4 pieces bone-in chicken thighs
Directions
- In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, pineapple juice, ginger, and garlic to create the marinade.
- Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken.
- Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results, turning the bag occasionally.
- Preheat the grill to medium heat. Oil the grill grates lightly to prevent sticking.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Transfer the grilled chicken to a serving platter and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
