PINEAPPLE SALSA CHICKEN
These flavorful chicken breasts are grilled to perfection, then topped with a sweet and spicy, colorful pineapple salsa. The dish is mildly spicy, however you can adjust the amount of jalapeno to suit your tastes. Use your favorite brand of seasoning and adjust the salt right before serving, as some brands are saltier than others.

This is a great recipe from Crisco (slightly modified). The recipe should be started about 45 minutes to an hour before the grill is ready to allow enough marinade time (not included in prep time).
