Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • 1 cup low-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 cup packed brown sugar

  • 1 cup fresh pineapple juice

  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped

  • 1 tablespoon freshly minced ginger


Instructions

  • Place chicken in a large bowl or resealable plastic bag.

  • In a separate bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, garlic, and ginger until sugar dissolves.

  • Pour marinade over chicken, seal, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  • Remove chicken and reserve marinade. Simmer marinade in a saucepan for 5โ€“10 minutes.

  • Grill chicken, brushing with the cooked marinade, until internal temp reaches 165ยฐF.

  • Let rest in foil for 5โ€“10 minutes before slicing.

  • Drizzle with remaining teriyaki sauce and serve.


Notes

  • Use thighs for maximum flavor and tenderness.

  • Let the chicken rest post-grill to lock in juices.

  • Double the marinade to save extra sauce for dipping or rice.
