: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 6 ounce boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 8 ounce can pineapple rings ( (or fresh!) patted dry)
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 4 buns or kaiser rolls
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
Instructions
Pound out the chicken breasts to an even 1-inch thickness if they are bigger than that; slice each in half, so you have 4 pieces total. Sprinkle with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Combine the juice from the pineapple can, soy sauce, brown sugar, and mustard. Marinate the chicken overnight in the the juice mixture.
Prepare your grill for medium-high heat and oil the grates well.
Grill the chicken for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping once halfway through (or until an internal temperature reaches 165F.) With 3 minutes remaining, add the cheese on top of each chicken piece.
While the chicken is grilling, add the pineapple rings halfway through, turning once.
Smear some mayo on the buns, then top with a piece of chicken and a pineapple ring.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
