Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
  • 3 to 3 1/2 pounds chicken pieces

Drain pineapple well, reserving the juice. In a resealable food storage bag, combine juice with ketchup, brown sugar, lemon juice, and lemon peel. Add chicken to the bag, seal, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. Arrange chicken on hot grill over medium coals about 4 inches from coals. Grill 20 minutes on each side, or until done. Combine marinade with pineapple and cornstarch in a saucepan. Cook, stirring, until mixture boils and thickens. Baste chicken with sauce about 5 minutes before done.
