I got this grilled chicken recipe from a friend while living in Hawaii. It sizzles with the flavors of brown sugar, ginger and soy sauce. Huli means "turn" in Hawaiian. —Sharon Boling, Coronado, California

I have made this twice already. My entire family absolutely loves this chicken. I make extra marinade to use over white rice.

Delicious! I made the recipe as directed. It was a HUGE hit with the family. This will be my standard marinade recipe for grilled chicken!

This is outstanding! A must for everyone to try. I made three changes: 1/8 tsp. ginger instead of ginger root, 1/2 c. regular soy sauce, boneless/skinless chicken breasts.

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.
