Better For You Buffalo Wings

1 - 2 lbs. chicken breasts or tenderloins
1 - 20 oz. can crushed pineapple (undrained)
6 Tbls. soy sauce
6 Tbls. lemon juice
3/4 Tbls. black pepper
2 Tbls. garlic powder
2-3 cups brown sugar
Directions:
Cut chicken into cubes.  Lay in prepared pan (I think it works best to use a jelly roll pan; an 11 x 13 - you may have to use two) so they are not overlapping.  Sprinkle generously with brown sugar and distribute pineapple over chicken.  Sprinkle with pepper.  Mix soy sauce and lemon juice; drizzle over chicken.  Sprinkle with garlic powder.  The original recipe says to bake this for 6-8 hours @ 225 degrees, but I never have this much time so I generally bake this for about 3 hours in a 300 - 325 degree oven.  The time can vary though depending on the size of your chicken pieces.  It is not necessary to turn or baste the wings.
