Grilled Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken
Yield: Serves 4 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes
Bring a little of the tropics into your home! Hawaiian dinner nights are fun to throw during the summer when you’re missing the warm, sandy beaches and sea salt in the air. You’ll just need to make a fruity drink to serve on the side!
INGREDIENTS
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chopped lettuce
¼ red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 cup pineapple chunks
1 avocado, sliced (optional)
4 (8-inch) flour tortillas
½ cup teriyaki sauce
Sesame seeds, for garnish
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

3. Grill the chicken for 5–8 minutes on each side until fully cooked.
4. Assemble the wraps by placing chicken, lettuce, onion, pineapple, and avocado slices (if using) on each tortilla.
