Servings: persons

⅓ cups Dry Sherry (NOT Cooking Sherry)
1/4 cups Low Sodium Soy Sauce
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 Tablespoon Hoisin Sauce
1/2 teaspoons Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
1 can (20 Oz. Size) Pineapple Chunks, Juice Reserved
2 whole Chicken Breasts
1 teaspoon Cold Water
1 teaspoon Cornstarch
1 Tablespoon Butter (optional)

1
Whisk sherry, soy sauce, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, red pepper flakes and 1/3 cup pineapple juice in a shallow dish or Ziploc quart-sized bag.
2
Add pineapple and chicken and gently stir to coat.
3
Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
4
I mix this up in the morning, put it in a Ziploc bag and let it marinate until dinner, flipping occasionally.
5
Meanwhile, preheat grill or skillet to medium-high.
6
Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry; reserve the marinade.
7
Oil the skillet or grill rack.
8
Cook the chicken until cooked through, about 8 minutes per side.
9
Pour the reserved pineapple chunks marinade in a small saucepan.
10
Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes or so (this will kill the bacteria from the raw chicken).
11
Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary.
12
Sometimes I like to add more pineapple juice.
13
Add the cold water to the cornstarch and stir, to make a slurry.
14
Pour into the marinade, stir, bring to a boil and stir until thickened.
15
Stir in butter (this is optional.
16
I need the fat so I add it).
17
Serve the chicken drizzled with pineapple sauce.
