Marinating and Grilling
  1. Marinate your chicken in a zesty blend of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and pineapple juice for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
  3. Grill the marinated chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  4. Prepare the glaze by simmering leftover marinade in a saucepan for about 10 minutes.
  5. Brush the glaze onto the chicken just before removing it from the grill.
