This Spicy Pineapple Brown Sugar Chicken features a tantalizing blend of sweet and savory flavors, with tender, caramelized chicken that adds a delightful twist to any summer gathering or weeknight dinner.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks fresh or canned
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha adjust to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Method
 

  1. Prepare the sauce by combining pineapple chunks, brown sugar, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic, and ginger in a bowl.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken breasts to the hot skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked through.
  4. Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add the sauce mixture and bring to a simmer, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over to coat well.
  7. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens and clings to the chicken.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
