Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is cooked through. If using a grill pan, cook the chicken over medium-high heat until fully cooked and nicely charred.
Serve:
Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Serve the chicken topped with the cilantro-pineapple salsa.
Tips:
For Extra Flavor: Add a sprinkle of chili powder or a splash of hot sauce to the salsa for an extra kick.
Grilling Alternative: You can also bake the marinated chicken in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through.
Make Ahead: The salsa can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just give it a good stir before serving.
This dish makes for a fresh and flavorful meal that’s sure to impress family and friends. Enjoy the bright, tropical flavors of the cilantro-pineapple salsa with the succulent, marinated chicken!
