HAWAIIAN BBQ CHICKEN MARINADE
The pickled chicken in this recipe tastes like a Hawaiian BBQ sauce. A little smoke and a little sweet, allowing you to lick the excess on your fingers! We use all real food ingredients, unlike sauces and pickles purchased in many stores, dates are our main sweetener, if this is for you, please make them meet the Whole30 standard!
If you’ve never had a pineapple before, you’ll have fun! We like grilling vegetables and fruits in summer. There are some special things. Our favorite roasted fruits include pineapple (clear) and stone fruits such as peaches, nectarines, plums etc. We also tried watermelon, cantaloupe and mango! Seriously, start playing with roasted fruits, you won’t regret!
This Paleo + Whole 30 grilled pineapple chicken exudes a smoky barbecue flavor with a hint of sweet and juicy grilled pineapple for a healthy summer dinner!

INSTRUCTIONS
Soak dates in warm water as noted to soften.
To make the marinade, place all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor and run continuously to combine all the ingredients until smooth. Stop to scrape sides down as needed and restart.
Place chicken in a shallow bowl or dish and pour the marinade over. Toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
When you are about ready to grill, cut pineapple into rounds as noted. Cut out the tough inner core from the rounds and set aside.
Heat your grill to high heat (about 500° F). Add the chicken and pineapple to grill and cook, flipping once and basting chicken with any remaining marinade until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes on each side depending on the size of the chicken. Remove pineapple when it is grilled to your liking (we grilled it just 3-4 minutes per side).
Serve chicken and pineapple with your desired side, over rice or over greens (or greens and rice). Enjoy.
