Super easy to make and it tastes GREAT.
Another must make for the summer time-Pineapple is delicious on the grill!
Just don't make the same mistake I made by allowing a 3 1/2 to be your sous chef-Jamaican Jerk Seasoning is very SPICY!!
Use exactly what the recipe calls for, not what your 3 1/2 thinks should be sprinkled on top. I'm in deliberations if I have to release him from his cooking duties in the kitchen or not...he got a little "sprinkle" happy with this one. All kidding aside it still turned out yummy, but very, very SPICY!
Bon Appetite~
Ingredients:
4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/4 teaspoons salt-free Jamaican jerk seasoning, divided (recommended: The Spice Hunter)
Salt
1 (20-ounce) can no-sugar added pineapple slices, in juice with juice reserved (recommended: Dole)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Directions:
Preheat grill or cast iron grill pan to medium-high heat.
Remove any excess fat from chicken and rinse under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels. Use a pastry brush to brush with olive oil and season with 1 1/2 teaspoons jerk seasoning and salt, if desired. Set aside.
Drain pineapple slices and reserve juice. Season both sides of pineapple slices with 1/2 teaspoon of jerk seasoning; set aside.
In small saucepan, bring reserved pineapple juice, remaining 1/4 teaspoon jerk seasoning, and brown sugar to a boil over high heat. Reduce liquid by 1/2, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Just before grilling, oil grate. Place chicken breasts on grate and grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove to platter and tent with foil.
Place pineapple slices on grate and grill for 1 to 2 minutes per side until grill marks appear and pineapple is heated through.
Serve chicken breasts with pineapple slices and warm sauce.
NOTE: Chicken may also be broiled 4 to 6 inches from heat source for 6 to 8 minutes per side. Broil pineapple 1 to 2 minutes per side.
A little humor from the grill master himself-ha, ha
