How to Make a Hawaiian Pineapple Grilled Chicken Sandwich
First, make my Lime Cilantro Aioli at least 2 hours in advance before you make this sandwich. This will let the flavors develop. You will love this Aioli. We dip our french fries in it, put it on fish, and of course, spread it on grilled chicken. In this recipe, we spread it on both sides of a ciabatta roll.
Next, you will want to marinate the chicken. We marinate our chicken in a simple oil and a seasoning mixture for a few hours in the refrigerator. It is the perfect grilled chicken flavor.
Preheat your grill on high heat. Spray your grill with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Grill each side of the chicken for 3-4 minutes. Closing your grill in between flipping. Continue to grill chicken until fully cooked internal temperature should read 165° F.
Grill marks make everything taste better right? While the chicken is cooking on the grill throw on pineapple slices next to them. They only take a couple of minutes on the grill to get those beautiful marks.
We finish off the sandwich with a slice of provolone cheese and alfalfa sprouts.
