I would certainly prepare this again, but only with a few modifications. First, it was way too salty. I will begin by at cutting the garlic salt back by at least half. Also, the ketchup flavor is too prominent; I will decrease the ketchup next time. With these modifications, I suspect I would rate the recipe at least a four--maybe a five. The flavor is decent and could be far better.
My tropical themed event went very well and my guests loved this dish! I do, too! I used Ginger Juice, less onion powder as I spread onions and colorful sweet peppers on the bottom of my coconut oiled baking dish. Less ketchup and more brown sugar. Used fresh garlic and not garlic salt. Rice vinegar instead of cider vinegar. Marinated the raw boneless chicken breasts for 1 hour in vinegar mixture. Greased deap dish stoneware, placed peppers and onions, then chicken and topped with pineapple mixture. Baked at 350 for 45 minutes.
Fabulous! I used boneless skinless chicken breast and reduced the cooking time to 30 minutes total. I also used a lot less brown sugar as the pineapple makes this dish plenty sweet already.
Good. Easy to make. I reviewed other comments before making it. Here are my suggestions. Full portion of ketchup is probably too much but 1/2 is not enough (bottom line - to taste). I used boneless/skinless thighs - drained most of the fat/liquid off b4 adding the sauce. Also brushed both sides up front (double the vinegar/spice mix use low sodium soy - skip the garlic salt use powder or fresh).
I used chicken breasts instead of bone-in chicken and baked it on a bed of veggies as someone suggested earlier. Then I served it over white rice. Everyone loved the mixture of tastes! The meat was very tender and juicy. My family said they especially liked the pineapple - my mother said that she normally doesn't like pineapple, but it was good in this dish. We're definitely going to make this again, especially since it was relatively easy and simple to make.
This was excellent. The only changes I made were: I only used three quarters cup of ketchup and because I found the sauce to be a little runny, I added 2 tbsp of cornstarch and water during the last 10 minutes of cooking, it thickened the sauce beautifully. My family were inhaling the aromas before supper and could hardly wait to eat. No one was disappointed. Thanks for an easy and tasty recipe. Will be serving again in the near future.
Great tasting and very easy to make. The chicken almost melts in your mouth and the rich mixture of the ginger & soy combined with the sweetness of the pineapple five it a wonderful flavor.
I have made this recipe twice with excellent results. My husband loves it. I did modify the recipe some as I did not have all the ingredients listed. Instead of ketchup I used a can of tomato soup and white wine vinegar instead of cider vinegar. I also used low sodium soy sauce and garlic powder not garlic salt. Also instead of basting the chicken with the soy sauce mixture - I mixed ALL the ingredients in one bowl and covered the chicken in it. Much easier! Turned out great and it will be a regular in our house! Thanks for the recipe!
I added some chili sauce it gave it some pep.
