Serving Size: 6

Cooking Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

• 0.5 Cups (cup) soy sauce
• 0.5 Cups (cup) pineapple juice
• 0.25 Cups (cup) vegetable oil
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) brown sugar, packed
• 2 Teaspoons (tsp) ginger, ground
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) garlic salt
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) mustard powder, dry
• 0.25 Teaspoon (tsp) black pepper, ground
• 6 Whole chicken breasts, boneless and skinless

Steps

1. In a medium saucepan, combine soy sauce, pineapple juice, vegetable oil, brown sugar, ground ginger, garlic salt, mustard powder, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool for about 30 minutes.
2. Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the cooled marinade over the chicken, seal the bag, and gently toss to ensure the chicken is well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-low heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
5. Grill the chicken breasts on the preheated grill, turning occasionally to prevent burning, until the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads at least 165°F (74°C), about 20 to 25 minutes.
6. Serve the grilled chicken hot, with a side of clarified butter for dipping, if desired. Enjoy the rich, savory flavors that mimic the taste of lobster.
