This is an easy, savory chicken and fruit main dish.
The recipe was adapted from http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2012/07/pineapple-teriyaki-grilled-chicken.html
- 1 (6 oz) can sliced pineapples, juice reserved.
- ⅛ cup vegetable oil
- ⅛ cup no sodium soy sauce substitute (see recipe)
- ⅛ cup brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ tsp Mrs Dash Chicken Grilling Seasoning
- 2-3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves or chicken tenders
- In a medium bowl, mix 3 oz of the reserved pineapple juice, vegetable oil, soy sauce substitute, brown sugar, garlic powder, and pepper. Place chicken in the bowl, and coat with the mixture. Cover, and marinate in the fridge for 8 hours or up to 24 hours. Save the pineapple slices in a separate container in the refrigerator
- Heat grill or skillet to medium-high. Place chicken on grill or skillet and cook until just cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per side if you use breast; less for tenders). Discard any leftover marinade.
- Place pineapple slices on grill or skillet and cook for about 1 minute per side. Remove chicken and pineapple from grill and serve.
Our estimates assume the use of fresh chicken with only 3% sodium per serving (instead of chicken that has been infused with a high-sodium broth).
Note that sodium percentages depend on which daily reference you use. The estimated 60 mg of sodium per serving implies that one serving of this recipe provides:
– 3% of the U.S. FDA daily reference value for sodium for a 2,000-calorie diet that includes 2,400 mg sodium, or
– 4% of the American Heart Association recommendation of 1,500 mg sodium per day, or
– 6% of the Ménière’s diet recommendation of 1,000 mg sodium per day.
