Directions

1
Whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, sugar, ketchup, vinegar, garlic, ground ginger, and jalapeno slices. Measure out 3/4 cup marinade; cover and refrigerate separately.
2
Place chicken in a zip-top plastic bag, pour remaining marinade over chicken, and chill 6-8 hours or until ready to cook.
3
Remove chicken from refrigerator; let stand at room temperature 30-45 minutes to come up to room temperature. Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels, discarding marinade.
4
Preheat outdoor grill to medium-high or heat a stovetop grill pan over medium-high.
5
Place chicken on oiled grates; grill, uncovered, 7-8 minutes until grill marks appear and the thickest portion of chicken registers 160°F, about 7-8 minutes longer. Grill pineapple slices 2 minutes per side, until grill marks appear (this can be done in batches, if needed).
6
Remove chicken and pineapple from grill and tent with foil to keep warm. Whisk cornstarch into remaining marinade until dissolved and add to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook 1 minute until thickened.
7
Brush glaze over chicken and pineapple.
8
Serve over rice and sprinkle with scallions.
