Hawaiian Style Huli Huli Chicken

Authentic Huli Huli Chicken is continually basted with a sticky-sweet sauce and “huli"-ed, which means “turned" in Hawaiian. We wanted to find a way to make this sweet, smoky, burnished bird at home. Cook's Country has developed a fantastic recipe for this chicken with an easy brine, with aromatics of fresh ginger, fresh garlic and soy sauce. The sauce is incredibly delicious, with pineapple juice, ketchup, ginger, garlic, garlic-chili paste and brown sugar, which is reduced until thick and syrupy. The grilling technique has been adapted so that the chicken won't burn, from all the sugar in the Huli Huli sauce. The end result, for us, was moist chicken with a sticky sweet and spicy sauce that we absolutely loved. Recipe from Cook's Country Magazine June/July 2009
