Glazed Pineapple Chicken

This recipe is so easy and very delicious!

1 pkg. Grill Mates Tomato, Garlic & Basil marinade (You could probably use any package of dry marinade but Nick and I like this one)
2/3 c. unsweetened pineapple juice
3 T. soy sauce
1 T. brown sugar
1 chicken cut up (that is what the recipe calls for...we use just chicken breasts)
1 (8 oz.) can sliced pineapple, drained (we use the juice from this can for the 2/3 c. pineapple juice)

In large sealable plastic bag, combine marinade mix, pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar.  Add chicken and coat.  Marinade 15 minutes.  Grill or broil chicken 15-18 minutes per side or until cooked.  Baste occasionally with marinade.  Serve garnished with sliced pineapple.  

**If you are grilling the chicken on a BBQer, we grill the pineapple.
**This makes a lot of marinade!!
