Looking for an easy way to fire up your grill this Spring? 

Goodness gracious, folks, me too!

This weekend the weather here in Ohio was just beautiful, so I took some time Sunday to get chicken marinaded and in freezer bags thinking we could easily thaw it out and pop it on the grill during the week.

Then Monday I came across this simple chicken recipe, and knew my family would love it. However, since the weather changed just a wee bit in Ohio by then, my poor husband had to use a sheet of plywood to block the grill from the wind as it blew up the hill. (Seriously folks, we’ve had 40 mph winds for the last 3 days – it’s nuts!)

Needless to say I was just glad to get this meal cooked, and the best part was I had enough leftover chicken to make a salad yesterday for lunch. 

Now that I’ve had a sneak preview of summer, I’m so ready for grilling season I can hardly stand it. Surely it’s right around the corner, right?

If you’re ready to get that your grill fired up at your house too, here’s a yummy recipe to get you started . . .

{6 Ingredient} Hawaiian Grilled Chicken 

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 3/4 cup ketchup
• 1/3 cup chicken broth
• 3/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce (we were out of soy sauce so I substituted with this recipe – it worked perfectly!)
• 1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
• 2-3 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut in quarters

Directions

1. Mix together first 5 ingredients.
2. Set aside 1 1/3 cups of the sauce to save for basting.
3. Place chicken in large plastic bag and pour marinade over top.
4. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
5. Grill chicken over medium heat for 6-8 minutes, or until no longer pink (discard remaining marinade from bag.)
6. During last five minutes of cooking, baste with additional marinade.
7. Enjoy!
