WOWIE MAUI CHICKEN



Wowie Maui Chicken image

With a delicious tropical flavor this dish is easy to make and low fat too! This recipe is all over the internet so it is difficult to say where it originated - but this is my version. The original recipe has 3/4 cup chopped green onions that you add in the last 5 minutes of cooking. I don't use green onions for ANYTHING, so part of my modification was to leave those out. Throw them in if you are so inclined!

Chili Chicken Pukalani, Maui style image

There is a little ma and pop grocery store in Pukalani, Maui, HI that sells food that is cooked in their kitchen and one that we always liked was called what else but "Chili Chicken". When we left the islands after living there for almost 40yrs. (Maui is my husband's island home. ) and moving to WA several years ago we were hungry for some of that chili chicken so I made my own recipe which is very simple. hope you like it.
