I found this delicious Hawaiian Chicken recipe on Myrecipes.com  I tried it out last week and I loved the marinade.  I changed two things about this recipe.  I didn't add as much garlic as it called for and I recommend starting the heat at a lower temperature.  Other than that it was great.  Only 247 calories per serving.  Try it and let me know what you think.
