Ingredients

• 1 cup pineapple juice
• 1 tablespoon chopped green onions
• 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger root
• 4 pounds bone-in chicken thighs
• 0.5 cup soy sauce
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup chicken broth
• 0.33333334326744 cup ketchup
• 1.5 teaspoons minced garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, chicken broth, ginger, garlic, and crushed red pepper together in a glass or ceramic bowl; reserve 1 cup in a separate container for basting. Add chicken to the remainder and marinate, covered, in the refrigerator, for 3 hours.

Step 2

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from the refrigerator and discard used marinade.

Step 3

Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, basting frequently with reserved 1 cup marinade mixture, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with green onions.
