Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts

Instructions
 

Sandwiches

  • Marinade chicken for at least one hour prior to cooking. Prepare Teriyaki mayo.
  • Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill chicken until fully cooked and thermometer reads 165º.
  • Grill pineapple on grill for several minutes on each side.
  • Toast your English muffins until browned (either in grill, via broiler or toaster).
  • To assemble sandwich, smear a generous amount of teriyaki mayo sauce on one half of muffins. Place cheese on other side.
  • Layer chicken, pineapple, tomato, red onion and romaine leaves. Add more sauce if desired and serve immediately!

Teriyaki Mayo

  • Combine mayo, 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce and red pepper flakes. Mix well.

Notes

If you don't have a grill, simply cook chicken & pineapple on your stovetop. Searing the chicken breast & pineapple gives it a great boost of flavor.
