👨🍳 Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil to create the Huli Huli marinade.
- Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable bag or shallow dish, pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the marinade for basting later and discard the rest that was in contact with raw chicken.
- Grill the chicken for 25-35 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes and basting with the reserved marinade during the last 10 minutes of cooking, until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the Huli Huli chicken from the grill, let it rest for a few minutes before serving, then garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired.
