Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl or resealable bag, whisk together soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, pineapple juice, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using).
  • Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates.
  • Remove chicken from marinade, discarding the excess marinade. Grill chicken for about 20-30 minutes, flipping occasionally, until cooked through and nicely caramelized. Baste with reserved marinade (if desired) during the last few minutes of grilling.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve Huli Huli Chicken with steamed rice and a side of grilled pineapple for an authentic Hawaiian experience.
