Chicken Tocino

Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken thighs, sliced into 2-inch pieces

Tocino Marinade

• 1 cup pineapple juice
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 12 cloves garlic, diced
• 2 tbsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 4 tbsp white vinegar
• 2 tbsp kosher salt (halve if using iodized salt)
• 5 drops red food coloring (optional)

Directions

• In a bowl, whisk together all the marinade ingredients.
• Submerge the sliced chicken in the marinade and refrigerate overnight (up to 3 days for best flavor).
• Cook the chicken over low heat until done, about 4-5 minutes per side. Alternatively, add 1/2 cup water to the pan and cook over low-medium heat until the water evaporates and the sugar caramelizes.
• Serve with white rice or garlic rice.
