Simplified Hawaiian Chicken

It all started with an evening snack. Pineapple. I cut it such that the eyes are left over and give the remaining to the kids. As I looked at these pieces an idea started forming.

My wife kind of read my thoughts and came up with this super simple but seriously awesome recipe. Pulverized these pieces in the blender and then strained the juice. They yielded about half a cup. To this juice we added a teaspoon of soy sauce and dissolved a tablespoon of brown sugar. Keep it aside.

Sprinkled freshly ground pepper, chopped garlic and salt on chicken drumsticks. Let it stay for about 30 mins.

Melted butter and added some olive oil into it. Once it was hot, added and browned the chicken legs over high heat. Then let it simmer while covered for about 15 mins. The chicken is cooked by now.wp-1491232628221.jpg

Added a lot of chopped coriander and the pineapple juice.

Over high heat let them all caramelize into a Hawaiian delight.
