Top 3 Pineapple Facts
- Pineapples contain ‘bromelain enzymes’ which breaks down proteins, so you can use them to tenderise meat.
- Hawaii produces about 1/3 of all pineapples in the world.
- You should eat it within two days if it’s stored at room temperature and within about a week if it’s refrigerated for its best taste.
Steps
1 Done 3 minutes | Prep It1. Flatten the chicken breast by wrapping it loosely in baking paper and flatten with your hands until 1-2cm thick. This will help them cook quicker. 2. Remove the pineapple slices juice and keep the juice in a cup. 3. For the Sticky BBQ Sauce add the BBQ sauce, ginger (can use ginger paste), seasoning and half the pineapple juice in a small bowl. 4. Add half the marinade to the chicken breast and leave until cooking. TIP - Try and marinade the chicken for at least 30 minutes (overnight is the best!) |
2 Done 30 Minutes | Griddle It1. Add coconut oil to your griddle pan on a high heat and cook for 4-5 minutes, until cooked though. 2. Once cooked, remove the chicken and add the pineapple slices and cook golden. 3. Add the rest of the marinade and chillies in the pan for 3 minutes until it thickens into a gloopy sauce! 4. Serve the chicken hot with the pineapples slices. This goes great with a summer salad and sweet potato. BIFF, BOSH, NOSH! |
3 Done | Biff's Top Tips1. Flatten the chicken breast helps them cook quicker...Duhhh. 2. Used tinned pineapple not fresh, it's cheap and easier. 3. Cooking the marinade on a high heat will thicken it up to a gloopy sauce. |
