          Ingredients

          Scale
          • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
          • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned in juice)
          • ½ cup brown sugar
          • ¼ cup soy sauce
          • 2 cloves garlic, minced
          • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
          • 2 tbsp olive oil
          • ½ tsp chili flakes (optional for spice)
          • 2 tbsp lime juice
          • Salt and pepper to taste
          • Fresh cilantro for garnish

          Instructions

          2 Cooking Method Matters: Choose your preferred methodgrilling for a smoky char, baking for an easy hands-off approach, or slow cooking for extra tender results. Each method brings a unique texture to the dish.
          3 Balance the Sweetness: If the sauce feels too sweet, add a splash of lime juice or soy sauce to balance the flavors. For a spicy kick, sprinkle in some chili flakes or a dash of sriracha.
