Description
A deliciously sweet and savory grilled chicken recipe marinated in honey, pineapple juice, and Italian dressing.
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken tenders, breasts, or thighs
- 1/2 cup Italian dressing
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
Instructions
- Mix the marinade in a bowl by whisking together the Italian dressing, honey, and pineapple juice until fully blended.
- Marinate the chicken by placing it in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pouring the marinade over to coat well.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high and lightly oil the grates.
- Remove the chicken from marinade and let excess drip off, discarding marinade for food safety.
- Grill for about 6–7 minutes per side until nicely charred and fully cooked.
- Serve the chicken warm after letting it rest for a couple minutes.
Notes
For a less sweet finish, reduce honey if using very sweet pineapple juice.
