Easy Hawaiian Chicken Recipe with tangy sauce idea. Simple pan cooked savory meal with pineapple for a family holiday lunch, dinner anytime.


  • Total Time40 min
  • Yield4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  1. 2 large chicken breast skin or bones
  2. 1 pound pineapple
  3. 1 tbsp. finely chopped chilies
  4. 5-6 small onions
  5. 3 garlic cloves
  6. 5 splashes of tabasco
  7. 2-3 tomatoes
  8. 1 cup coconut milk
  9. 2 tbsp. olive oil
  10. 2 tbsp. lime juice
  11. salt, pepper to taste.

Instructions

1. Cut the chicken fillets into medium cubes. Sprinkle the cubes with salt and a splash of lime juice. Leave for a few minutes to allow the meat to salt and marinate a little.

2 Peel the onion and garlic. Cut the onions into 2-4 pieces. Chop the garlic finely or press it through a press.

3. Cut off the tail and top leaves from the pineapple. Peel the pineapple from the skin. Set half of the pineapple aside for other dishes. Cut the remaining half into 8 slices and chop into triangles. Do not remove the core, as it will be soft after cooking.

4. Heat the oil in a pan. Place the fillets, onion, garlic and chili in the hot oil. Cook over high heat, stirring vigorously until golden. Add the finely chopped tomatoes and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens.

5. Place the prepared pineapple chunks and pour in the coconut milk. Cook for about 7 minutes after boiling.   Adjust the sauce for salt, pour in the tabasco and sprinkle with pepper.

Transfer the finished dish to a serving plate, sprinkle with cilantro and serve immediately
