Ingredients
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1½ tbsp Aloha Curry
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp ketchup
2 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp pineapple juice (canned or bottled, not fresh)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated (recommended)
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp Sriracha
Directions
In a bowl, whisk together Aloha Curry, soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, pineapple juice, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
Reserve 2–3 tablespoons of the marinade before adding chicken for glazing later.
Add chicken and coat thoroughly. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 to 4 hours.
Preheat grill or pan to medium high heat. Grill for best flavor.
Brush the grill with oil or heat oil in a pan
Drain excess marinade from the chicken before placing it on the grill or pan and set aside.
Cook chicken for 5 to 7 minutes per side until mostly cooked through.
Brush reserved marinade onto chicken during the last 2 to 3 minutes, turning occasionally to caramelize.
If sugars begin to darken too quickly, reduce heat slightly to prevent burning.
Once the internal temperature reaches 165°F, remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
Serve with rice and grilled pineapple if desired.
