A delightful mix of sweet and savory flavors, these Grilled Hawaiian Chicken Sandwiches feature juicy grilled chicken marinated in a pineapple-soy sauce blend, topped with grilled pineapple and cheese, served on a toasted bun.
Ingredients
Marinade
- 0.5 cup pineapple juice
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 2 cloves garlic minced
Sandwich
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 4 slices pineapple
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 4 brioche buns
- 4 leaves lettuce
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise optional
Instructions
Prepare Marinade
- In a bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, ginger, and garlic until combined.
Marinate Chicken
- Place chicken breasts in a resealable bag or glass container, pour marinade over, and ensure chicken is fully submerged. Marinate in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Grill Chicken and Pineapple
- Preheat grill to medium heat (350-450°F). Remove chicken from marinade, pat dry, and grill for 5-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Grill pineapple slices for 2-3 minutes per side until caramelized.
Assemble Sandwich
- Toast brioche buns lightly. Layer lettuce on the bottom bun, followed by grilled chicken, provolone cheese, grilled pineapple, and a spread of mayonnaise on the top bun. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Marinate overnight for maximum flavor.
- Pat chicken dry before grilling to ensure proper browning.
- Serve with a fresh salad or chips for a complete meal.
