Pineapple Chicken

Yes, another wonderful chicken dish. When chicken is your main source of meat protein it can be a challenge to make it exciting to eat nightly. Here’s a yummy asian influenced chicken recipe that uses soy sauce, pineapples and hot chili flakes. I had 2 chicken thighs for 4 ounces add an extra point for a few pineapple bits and a bit of sauce for a total of 5 WW points. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as we did. Serve with rice and veggies.

Ingredients

  • 6 small chicken things about 1.5 – 2 ounces each
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp minced ginger
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 8-ounce can pineapple

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Coat an 8 x 8 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, I used my awsome stone which means no cooking spray.
  • Place chicken thighs in a single layer in a baking dish.
  • Combine tamari or soy sauce with brown sugar, ginger, crushed pepper and pineapple in a small bowl and  pour over chicken.
  • Bake uncovered for 25 – 40 minutes (depending on the chicken size), basting frequently with juices. Serve and enjoy.
