Hawaiian Grilled Chicken – SO Much Flavor!
Looking for an easy way to fire up your grill and make a delicious meal?
This weekend the weather here was just beautiful, so I took some time to get chicken marinaded and in freezer bags thinking we could easily thaw it out and pop it on the grill during the week.
🍴TIP: You can find this delicious meal in Week 2 of our Freezer Menu Planning Made Easy Set!
Hawaiian Grilled Chicken
Ingredients
- 3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into quarters
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves minced
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, ketchup, chicken broth, soy sauce, and garlic. Measure out 1 1/3 cups marinade and pour into a quart-size zip-top bag.
- Place chicken into a gallon-size zip-top bag and pour remaining marinade from the bowl over chicken. Place both bags into another gallon-size zip-top bag. Label and freeze.
- When ready to cook, thaw in refrigerator 1 - 2 days.
- Drain chicken and discard marinade. Grill chicken, covered, over medium heat 6 - 8 minutes on each side. During the last five minutes of cooking, baste with additional marinade. Or bake in a 375°F oven 20 - 25 minutes or until done.
