HULI HULI CHICKEN ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Begin by placing the whole chicken, breast-side down, on the preparation surface. Using kitchen shears, remove the backbone by cutting up from the tailbone to the neck on both sides. Open the bird, remove the breastbone and wishbone. Make small cuts on both sides below the thighs to tuck the wings under so you have a flattened "spatchcock" chicken.
• To a small saucepan, add 1 cup water, the salt, sugar, bay leaves and garlic cloves. Bring to a simmer to dissolve the salt and sugar. Once at a simmer, turn off the heat and add the ice. Once the liquid is cool, place into a resealable bag over a bowl and add the chicken to the brine, making sure it is completely submersed. Allow to brine in the fridge for 1 hour.
• In a small saucepot over medium-low heat, combine the pineapple juice, ketchup, soy sauce and sherry vinegar. Once the liquid simmers, whisk in the brown sugar and ginger. Continue to simmer until the liquid begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand (or prepare ahead and refrigerate until ready for use). Once ready for use, reserve about a cup to serve.
• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Remove the chicken from the brine and pat dry. Thoroughly mix the garlic powder, salt, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, cumin and some black pepper together in a small bowl. Coat the chicken with the dry rub, making sure to sprinkle well inside the cavity. Lay the chicken flat on the preparation surface, making a neat, rectangular package with the thighs tucked next to the breasts and the wings inserted into the slits.
• Secure the chicken in a medium rectangular wire-mesh grilling basket and set over an open grill flame. Char with the breast side down first, 7 to 8 minutes. Turn once and continue to grill, bone-side down for another 15 minutes.
• Continue to turn as it cooks so it doesn't burn and it replicates the Huli Huli machine cooking process. Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken as you turn it. Finish by alternating sides until the chicken is thoroughly browned, the skin is crispy and a digital instant-read thermometer tucked under the breast confirms the internal temperature is 165 degrees F. The total cook time will be 35 to 40 minutes. With a heat-resistant silicone pastry brush, glaze the chicken with the Huli Huli sauce the last 5 minutes. Remove from the basket and allow the chicken to rest for 6 to 8 minutes.
• Carve the chicken into breasts, thighs and wings. Arrange on a large serving dish alongside the reserved Huli Huli sauce.

HULI-HULI CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger and 1/2 cup water in a large bowl or baking dish to combine. Season with black pepper.
• Remove 1 1/2 cups of the marinade and add to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until slightly thickened, 6 to 9 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool, then cover and refrigerate until ready to grill.
• Place the chicken thighs in the remaining marinade in the large bowl, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Lightly oil the hot grill grates with vegetable oil. Remove the chicken thighs from the marinade, letting the excess drip back into the bowl, place on the grill (see Cook's Note) and season with salt and pepper. Grill, basting with the sauce frequently, until the chicken is charred and registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 5 to 8 minutes per side. The sauce should caramelize and turn a deep red color. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
• Drizzle the pineapple with the olive oil and rub to coat evenly. Grill until charred and lightly caramelized, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
• Serve the chicken with the pineapple and garnish with the scallions.

If using a bowl, cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight, or at least 8 hours, turning the chicken at least once.
• When you're ready to cook, oil your grill grates well. Heat the grill to medium (for charcoal, the grill is ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds). Add the chicken to the grill, cover, and cook 25 to 35 minutes, turning every 5 minutes to keep the chicken from burning, and basting it with the reserved marinade after you turn it, until cooked through.
