Ingredients

3 chicken leg quarters
Oil for searing
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, minced
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup soy sauce
1 can pineapple juice
1 can pineapple slices
3 tablespoons sugar
Steps:

To prepare the chicken; shallowly slit the chicken (skin up) to help the flavors go through the bones. Set aside.
Heat oil in a pan, sear the chicken legs, flip till both sides have browned. Take these out.
Saute the garlic with the leftover oil, cook the onion till slightly translucent before adding back the chicken legs. Mix in black pepper, soy sauce, pineapple juice and the juice from the pineapple slices. Cover and let this simmer for 5 minutes.
Uncover and flip to cook evenly. Sprinkle in some sugar, giving it a good mix before letting it simmer for another 5 minutes, covered.
Flip again, give it a taste before adding more salt as needed. Baste occasionally. Add in the pineapple slices and baste till the chicken looks golden brown.
Simmer for another 2 – 3 minutes before serving.
