There is just something about grilled chicken. It’s so….
What is it? It’s so….
Tender on the inside, and a bit crisp on the outside.
It’s so……perfect.
This is a simple marinade for any kind of chicken. It gave the chicken a lovely, sorta sweet, flavor!

Sounds yummy!, I like to marinate my chicken with the juices of one or two lemons and a lime if I have it. I like to stock pineapple chunks cans in my pantry so this with be a nice thing to try when I am out of lemons.

Yum this is on my meal plan this week! I found a great Pineapple Mango relish on allrecipes that sounded good to serve on top. They had mangoes on sale at Walmart for $.84 so I picked up a couple. Love those sale items!

we made this tonight. The chicken tasted like chicken. There was no juice flavor at all. I love pineapples with chicken so we will try it again. Next time, I’ll marinade the chicken overnight!
