I have been making this chicken for years and have always done it in the oven. I don't know why I never passed it over to Nathan to grill but the other night I finally did. While it is fantastic in the oven, it takes on a whole new life on the grill.Whether you make this in the oven or on the grill, I hope you'll give it a try... It's a winner!
Huli-Huli Chicken
1/3 cup ketchup
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 TBSP sherry
1 tsp fresh ginger root
2 cloves garlic, minced
chicken pieces
Mix all ingredients (minus chicken). Broil or grill chicken 6-8 minutes on each side. Baste chicken with sauce and continue to broil or grill until done.
Oh my gosh. I grew up in Hawaii, so huli huli chicken was one of my absolute favorite things in the world. You're right - grilled makes it better, especially with all those charred edges to add the flavor.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of it before, but I like what goes into the sauce - so you can bet I'll be trying this one!
ReplyDeleteI'm all for chicken being grilled by honey especially when it looks like that! Love the name too!
