MAI TAI CHICKEN
I was planning on making rum chicken but didn't have any regular rum, so I came up with this pineapple-mai tai version instead. Fresh pineapple can be substituted for canned.

MAI TAI
There are raging debates about the invention of and the proper recipe for this drink among tiki connoisseurs. The more accepted versions are granted to Victor J. Bergeron, the irascible, wooden-legged "Trader Vic," from his eponymous restaurant bar in Oakland, Calif., in the '40s. Contrary to what you might think, the mai tai is actually just a rum sour, employing orgeat alongside Curaçao or triple sec as the sweetener, and using two rums to add complexity. The rest is just lime juice, and that's it. No coconut, no passion fruit, pineapple, mango or orange juice. No umbrellas. It's a relatively simple drink, but as such, each element has to be of the utmost quality; great rums, fresh lime juice and prefab orgeat syrup equal disappointment. But when concocted with homemade orgeat, all the tumblers click. The rums, the lime, the orange aromatics and the heft of the almond all play in stupendous balance.

Steps:
- Combine ingredients in a shaker with crushed or cracked ice and shake vigorously. Pour, with shaken ice, into a double old-fashioned glass and garnish with the spent lime shell and a sprig of fresh mint. Some, who live large and dangerously, like to float an extra 1/2 ounce of dark rum atop it.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh pineapple, lime juice, and orange juice will give your Mai Tai Chicken the best flavor.
- Choose a good quality soy sauce: A good quality soy sauce will add a rich, umami flavor to your dish.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Otherwise, they will become dry and tough.
- Serve immediately: Mai Tai Chicken is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the chicken is hot and juicy, and the sauce is still flavorful.
Conclusion:
Mai Tai Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with rice or noodles, and enjoy!
