5 INGREDIENTS

PINEAPPLE TERIYAKI CHICKEN

I like to marinate this delicious chicken entree overnight, then pop it on the grill for a breezy taste of the islands that my family and friends really love.

PREP: 10 MIN. + MARINATING GRILL: 15 MIN. MAKES: 4 SERVINGS


1 can (20 ounces) sliced pineapple

1/2 cup teriyaki sauce

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)

4 slices provolone cheese (1 ounce each)

1. Drain pineapple, reserving juice; refrigerate pineapple. In a small bowl, combine teriyaki sauce and reserved juice. Pour 3/4 cup marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate the remaining marinade for basting.
