Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, minced garlic, honey, and red pepper flakes until combined. Reserve half for brushing later, and set aside the remainder to marinate the chicken.
  2. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Coat each piece with the reserved marinade and let marinate for 20-30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate overnight.
  3. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the marinated chicken on the grill or skillet for 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and caramelized.
  5. Slice fresh pineapple into rings, brush with reserved marinade, and grill for 2-3 minutes per side.
  6. Layer a piece of grilled chicken on a plate, then top with a grilled pineapple slice. Drizzle with extra marinade.
  7. Pair with fluffy rice or a fresh green salad and serve immediately.
