Asian style Chicken




My wife has been craving Chinese food. Since going down to one-income we rarely get to eat out. However, as you can tell from the blog, we are not going hungry. Chicken breasts were on sale for $1.79 a pound this past week so we loaded up.

The chicken was marinaded for about two hours and with the fried rice had a "Asian style" taste to it.

The marinade contained:
1 can of diced pineapple
1/4 cup of honey
1/4 cup of ketchup
1/8 cup (or so) of Worcestershire sauce
clove of garlic
Salt to taste

After removing the chicken from the marinade I brought it to a boil and used as a topper on the chicken. My wife cooked the fried rice inside while the chicken was on the grill. The kids were even willing to eat some rice and chicken. This is something we will try again soon. The only thing I would do differently is marinade the chicken longer...maybe twice as long.
