    What can I use in place of coconut milk?

  2. beth says:

    Sounds wonderful, but what can be used other than coconut milk?

  3. Becky says:

    Is the teriyaki marinade a product to buy? Is it just teriyaki sauce? These look amazing!

  4. Melissa says:

    I'm confused. You say it marinates in the sweetest pineapple marinade, but there is only teriyaki sauce and coconut milk in the marinade?

  5. Kristen says:

    I wondered that too! But then I saw that the pineapple marinade is the honey and brown sugar. Looks wonderful--if I can grill it right. :)

  6. Becky says:

    I think the sweetest pineapple marinade refers to the Huli Huli Chicken recipe.

  7. Nichole says:

    My question as well. Is there a recipe for the teriyaki marinade? Thank you!

  8. Cyd says:

    For this recipe, we use Teriyaki marinade purchased from the grocery store. We like Yoshida's and Veri Veri Teriyaki.

  9. Cyd says:

    Yes, you can buy teriyaki marinade at most grocery stores.
