Spicy-sweet, with the obligatory presence of pineapple - this is the Hawaiian style.
In all sweet and sour marinades, the balance of sour and sweet is very important. It is the correct proportions of “salt” and “sugar” that create that pleasant taste sensation that we love in exotic cuisine.
This marinade is suitable not only for thigh fillets, but also for breasts, legs - for all parts of chicken, for barbecue. Pork and beef are also good in this marinade. The difference in preparation lies in the marinating time and cooking method.
Grill, oven, frying pan - all methods are good in their own way.
Or - the perfect pairing for Hawaiian chicken.
I served it with Thai cucumber salad (recipe the other day).
Hawaiian chicken fillet
Ingredients
1 cup = 240 ml
Preparation
Mix the ingredients for the marinade. Add chicken fillet. Cover with marinade. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 4-24 hours.
20-30 minutes before cooking, remove the chicken from the refrigerator so that it reaches room temperature.
Grilled:
Grill over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes on each side. For chicken breasts increase time by 2-4 minutes.
Transfer to a plate, cover with foil and let stand for about 5 minutes.
In the oven:
You can use the broil/grill mode (225-250 C/450-500F-broil). Keep the baking sheet close to the heating element. Cooking time will be approximately 10-12 minutes. Turn over once.
Remove from oven, cover with foil and let rest for about 5 minutes.
You can make a double portion. Leave one to marinate to use immediately, put the other in the freezer directly in the marinade. When you defrost the fillets, defrost them in the refrigerator (about 24 hours). As the chicken defrosts, it will marinate.
It is convenient to use a plastic bag for the marinade.
The marinating container should be glass (ideally), enameled, stainless steel or food-grade plastic.
Cook with pleasure!
Chicken chops are prepared from breast or thigh fillets in a frying pan and in the oven. Chicken meat goes well not only with vegetables, mushrooms, a variety of cheeses, but also with fruits. To make the chops juicy in the oven, they are first quickly fried in a frying pan.
Chicken chops with cheese and pineapple in the oven are original, amazingly juicy and aromatic, adding a light sweetish taste to the meat and making it very tender, melting in your mouth.
Ingredients for 2 servings:
Cooking time: 25 minutes.
1. Wash skinless chicken breast halves and wipe with a paper towel. We lay them down with the side on which the skin was, and carefully trim the thick, fleshy parts with a sharp knife. This way the thick parts of the fillet open up and when beating the meat will be of the same thickness.
2. Sprinkle the prepared halves with salt and ground pepper, place them one at a time on a board, cover with a plastic bag or a piece of cling film and beat well.
3. Place chicken chops in hot oil and fry at high temperature for 2-3 minutes. Do not fry too much, otherwise the white meat will become dry. Set the oven to 220 degrees.
4. Turn over to the other side and cook for another 2 minutes. It will take 5 minutes for the beaten fillet to cook completely and remain juicy.
5. Transfer the fried halves to baking paper or foil.
6. Place canned pineapple rings on top.
7. Coarsely grate hard cheese, sprinkle on rings and open fillets. Place in the oven for 10-12 minutes. The cheese should melt and be covered with a brown, aromatic crust.
8. Take out the delicious, tender Hawaiian-style pineapple chops, place them on a plate with bright lettuce leaves and serve immediately with your favorite side dish (boiled rice, mashed potatoes are perfect) and light salads from vegetables.
