Hi Nicole !

Searching for you I found this recipe:

For 4 full (both sides) chicken breasts, will serve 6

Cut chicken breasts in strips

Season with:

1 cup finely chopped white onion
1 medium green pepper finelly chopped
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
juice of 1 1/2 lime
1/2 cup wine vinager
1 grated coconut
salt / pepper to taste
stir chicken with seasoning
sprinkle with chile (paprika)
(add hot sauce if you like hot)

* Dice 1 pineapple (or use canned slices and dice in squares))

Let stand in the fridge for two hours

Grill pieces and add pineapple as chicken starts to brown.

Grill until chicken is brown and pineapple is tender

Bon appetit !





Hope you find your recipe and have a nice party !
