We are cooking with Pulo Cuisine again!! I am very happy to be a brand ambassador for Pulo Philippine Cuisine once again and to show you some great recipes for the summer months. Today, I have for you Easy BBQ Pineapple Chicken. This is a great meal when you don’t want to turn the oven on for those hot summer months. It is made in a disposable foil pan, so clean-up is a breeze too!

Make-Ahead Dinner
Dinner is all made ahead of time and ready to pop on the BBQ when you are! The chicken marinates for hours underneath the fruit and vegetables, then a quick drizzle of more wonderful Pineapple Tamarind Marinade, and onto the BBQ it goes.
The Philippines is made up of over 7000 islands, and the country is a dynamic mixture of different cultures: Malay, Chinese, Spanish, and Indian. Because of this, their cuisine is the original fusion of all the wonderful rich flavors and influences of all these cuisines. Pulo captures those flavors and shares them in their easy marinades and cooking sauces.
I love making dishes ahead of time and then just popping them in the oven. This one can be done in the oven too but save yourself the extra heat and put it on the BBQ on indirect heating. Walk away and relax on your porch while dinner cooks itself. Couldn’t be easier!!

Pulo Cuisine has five wonderful flavors, three marinades, and two cooking sauces. All of them are convenient and ready to use. The marinades, Mango Chili, Lemongrass Atsuete, and the marinade we are using today Pineapple Tamarind are fabulous on pork, chicken, beef, and seafood. We have used them so many times and they are quick and easy to infuse the wonderful flavors of the Philippines into your BBQ this summer.

Here is the first step of the recipe, the chicken is on the bottom marinating in the delicious Pineapple Tamarind Marinade.

Then just before grilling pour more Pineapple Tamarind Marinade over the ingredients. Cover with foil and BBQ on indirect heating. Really, what could be easier?!!

Dinner is served and with a little rice to sop up all the amazing sauce. This actually was fun to make and I love the sweet heat that the Pineapple Tamarind imparts on this dish.

Oh my word! When I saw Pulo – I thought it was a Filipino word and I was right – and I lived in one of the 7,100 islands in the Philippines. We do love to use Pineapples and Tamarind in Filipino cuisine and this marinated BBQ chicken sounds scrumptious! I wonder if they are available here in the US as I would love to try them. 🙂
