A delicious and flavorful chicken dish inspired by Hawaiian cuisine, perfect for grilling and sharing with friends and family.
Combine the brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, sherry, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl.
Mix the marinade thoroughly to ensure the sugar dissolves completely.
Place the chicken thighs in resealable plastic bags and pour the marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Turn the bags occasionally to ensure even coating of the marinade.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates using a paper towel and tongs.
Ensure the grill is clean to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken thighs for 6-8 minutes per side, basting with the reserved marinade during the last few minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken hot with your choice of sides, such as rice or vegetables.
Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
