Using a colander, drain pineapple preserves, reserving the pineapple juice.

Arrange an oven rack so that the skillet will be about 6 inches (15 cm) from the broiler, then turn the broiler on to high. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and broil for about 5-7 minutes, or until the barbecue sauce caramelized and the chicken is cooked through.
