I used chicken breasts instead of thighs. I also used ground ginger instead of fresh, and it still turned out wonderful. I've made it quite a few times. We often have 12 or more guests at a time at our home for supper. Everyone LOVES this chicken. This is one recipe that's a keeper for sure.

This is our favorite new grilling recipe! I cut the recipe in half and use chicken breasts instead...just the right amount for my family.

Having made Huli Huli chicken for years. This is good exept there is no pineapple juice listed. That is the first 1st and main ingredient to this sauce. When you think about it, it did originate in Hawaii! Try it next time.

This is one of the best new recipe I've tried in a long time. Had no fresh gingerroot but used 1/2 tsp ground ginger. I used chicken breasts cut in half width wise. This is a keeper recipe I'll us over and over.

This is not a review as I have not made it yet. Has anyone tried making this using brown sugar substitutes such as Splenda Brown Sugar Blend or Sugar Twin Brown Sugar Replacement?

The first time I made this, I didn't let the chicken sit in the marinade for 8 hrs, it was more like a couple of hours. I also forgot to set aside marinade to baste with when grilling. Despite my faults, the taste was still amazing, and it has been requested over and over again. Great flavor, and so easy!!!

Would make a good grilled chicken sandwich (use breast vs thighs) with grilled pineapple ring and extra sauce.

We have made this recipe many times because its so easy and delicious. We make it for company and we make it when we are camping. Ive also used the marinade for grilled salmon filets with great results.

This is an awesome recipe!  I ran out of soy sauce and only used a quarter cup - it was still fantastic!  If you like teriyaki you'll like this!

This recipe sounds so good. We don't grill. Has anyone tried this in the oven?

This recipe is simple and delicious. I made it for company and grilled it before they arrived. Removed to a covered tin foil baking pan when grilling was complete, put it in conventional oven on 250 degrees until we were ready to eat. Received rave reviews from guests.

My husband who doesn't like chicken even said this one was good. Very nice and different flavor than usual.

Very good & easy to make!!! I even made it in the late afternoon, didn't read the recipe all the way through seeing that it needed 8 hrs to marinade. I left it marinading at room temp for about an hour, and it was fantastic!!!

Delicious! I mis-read the recipe and did not reserve marinade for basting and it worked out just fine. I also mixed boneless thighs and boneless chicken breasts (I cut these in half so that the sizes were similar) so that guests could have a choice. Taste was very good; I tried this out on guests and they gave it a thumbs up. It met all of the criteria I have for a winner of a recipe: it was easy, used ingredients that most people would have on hand, could be assembled ahead of time, had a short cook time and, most of all, tasted great!!

Great recipe. I used chicken tenderlions, as I was grilling I sprinkled red crushed pepper on them. It was great.

Ever since I went to HI in High School and tried Huli Chicken there I have wanted to recipe. Every time we go to HI we bring back as many bottles of Huli sauce as we can. I tried this recipe and it tastes just like it does from HI! Thank you so much. Now I won't have to go to HI to eat this!!

This was wonderful. The chicken was so moist. The trick is to turn it often and use all the baste. Our company asked for this recipe after dinner. I'm sure this will become a family favorite!!

This was delicious - picky kids ate without complaining. I used ground ginger because that's what I had on hand and subed in breast for the thighs.

I discovered this recipe while on vacation in HI and knew I would want to try it. I used 4 large boneless skinless chicken breast halves and 3 filet type smaller ones and halved the sauce recipe. Subbed ground ginger and garlic powder for the fresh ginger and garlic since that was what I had on hand. Marinaded in 1 c. sauce and basted with 1/4 c. reserved sauce. Moist, juicy, and delicious. Definite keeper here.

Very easy to prepare ahead of time and then just grill. Served it with grilled fresh pineapple rings, coconut rice and Hawaiian rolls.

I marinated sliced mushrooms with this, the last hour only. Grilled with sliced pineapple and served with Rice-A-Roni. Not sure why it says prep time is 15 minutes when it needs to marinate 8 hours! I have had a version of this recipe for many years, and instead of ketchup it asks for 1/3 cup dry sauterne and 3T Dijon mustard. NO brown sugar and half the soy sauce. It is not as salty, and calorie count is lower, but equally good.
