A delightful dish that transports you to tropical paradise, combining the sweetness of pineapple and ginger with juicy chicken thighs.

  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 3 tbsp agave
  • 4 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 4 tbsp canned pineapple juice
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil (or any cooking oil)
  • 1 tsp ginger, minced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Combine all the marinade ingredients—ketchup, agave, rice vinegar, pineapple juice, sesame oil, minced ginger, minced garlic, and soy sauce—in a medium-sized bowl or a large zip lock bag. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well blended.
