Feeding the Church

We're gonna make huli huli chicken. This is a traditional Hawaiian grilled chicken dish. We're using chicken leg quarters, so legs and thighs together. We've been marinating this since yesterday. And here it is. So this chicken, very simple. It's kind of an Asian style marinade. There's soy sauce, fresh pineapple, there's garlic, there's ginger, and then some more acidity. We added a couple of limes in there just for fun. So what this does, this is kind of any normal chicken marinade, chicken brine. There's salt, there's sugar, there's acids in here. The acids break down the meats. The salt and the sugar actually pull moisture out of the meat and kind of push the marinade into it. So you're tenderizing and you're adding flavor and doing all kinds of amazing things. This is gonna be really good too. Fresh pineapple, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, the Asian style. A little bit sweet with some sugar in there too. So we get a really nice crust on the grill. So like I said, we've been marinating this overnight since yesterday. We'll kind of let it sit out a little bit and then we're gonna cook it off. This is dark soy sauce? Dark soy sauce. Just a little bit of soy sauce.
