This Huli Huli Chicken is truly one of our favorite dishes to make for our family! Â Especially for the 4th of July!
My cute son was born on July 2nd, which meant that I came home from the hospital on July 4th. With the madness of a newborn, we missed all the parades and festivities and I was heartbroken.
Around 9 pm, I was sitting on my bed feeding the baby and feeling sorry for myself when my cute neighbors knocked at the door. The handed my husband a plate full of this grilled chicken . . . and after having a frozen pizza for dinner, this chicken smelled and tasted absolutely heavenly!
We have moved since that 4th of July so many years ago, but whenever I make my version of their chicken, I always remember their kindness . . . I doubt they know how much I needed that grilled chicken in my life at that very moment! 🙂 And, it really was and still is one of the best grilled chicken recipes I have ever tasted!
Serves: 5-6
The combination of pineapple juice and brown sugar makes the most delicious grilled chicken! Also, the longer you let it marinade, the better this chicken tastes.
