HAWAIIAN GRILLED CHICKEN & PINEAPPLE COOKED MY WAY

Steps:

• In baggie mix marinade - add chicken pieces to baggie and rotate until all the pieces of chicken are coated. I put the chicken in the refrigerator while I cooked up some rice, You can marinate for up to 2 hours.
• Preheat grill pan - until screaming hot, - spraying with cooking spray before adding chicken chunks from the marinate and placing the pineapple chunks around the chicken until all have been added to the grill. When chicken releases from grill, no cheating, turn and grill the chicken and the pineapple on the other side.
• Take the marinade left in the baggie and add it to a small saucepan and heat until boiling. Mix cornstarch and water together in a small bowl. When marinade is boiling, slowly add the cornstarch mixture and return to a boil and stir until thickened.
• Take the chicken and the pineapple from the grill and add to the thickened sauce and stir well until all is well coated.
• To serve place rice on platter and top with the chicken and pineapple.
• NOTE: I thought that adding some green bell pepper and some onions to this would make it even better -- maybe next time !
