Sweet & Salty Hawaiian Chicken

Submitted by AustinsAm

"This recipe comes from a cookbook made up of Lancaster County recipes. It is very simple to make and does not take a lot of time. I love the tangy taste of the pineapple and the 57 sauce. I used boneless, skinless, chicken tenders. I think it's better to use smaller pieces of chicken instead of whole breasts, as they would tend to be dry. Very good served with rice!"

Delicious and so easy! The sauce is tangy but the honey softens it a bit. I just used 10 oz. of chicken (less than 1/3 the recipe) for the 2 of us, but half the sauce. I like more sauce to mop up! But it's the chunks of pineapple that really made this dish for me! Thanks for posting, AustinsAm!
