Hawaiian Huli Huli Chicken

Sauce:

2  tbsp ketchup

2  tbsp light soy sauce

2  tbsp honey

2  tsp orange juice

1  tsp garlic (about 1 clove), minced

1  tsp ginger, minced

Then:

12  oz boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 2 large breasts),

cut into 1-inch cubes (about 24 cubes)

1  cup fresh pineapple, diced

8 six inch wooden skewers soaked in water

Optional: Add sliced peppers or red onion to skewer.

To make sauce: Combine ketchup, soy sauce, honey, orange juice, garlic and ginger; mix well. Separate into two bowls and set aside.


Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Preheat oven to 350 F.

Alternately thread three chicken cubes and three pineapple chunks on each skewer.


Grill skewers 3-5 minutes on each side. Brush or spoon sauce from one bowl onto chicken and pineapple every other minute. Discard remaining sauce from first bowl.


To prevent chicken from drying out, finish cooking to minimum internal temperature of 165 F in oven. Using clean brush or spoon, coat with sauce from remaining bowl before serving.
