Ingredients
- FOR THE SANDWICH:
- 2 whole Boneless Chicken Breasts
- 2 slices Pineapple, Cored
- ½ cups Spring Mix
- 2 slices Red Onion
- 2 whole Sandwich Buns
- FOR THE TERIYAKI SAUCE:
- 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- ¼ cups Soy Sauce
- 3 Tablespoons Water
- ½ Tablespoons Honey
- ½ Tablespoons Light Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, Minced
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 Tablespoon Water
Preparation
For the sandwiches:
Add chicken and pineapple to a preheated grill over medium heat. Grill pineapple for about 2 minutes on each side or until it has nice grill marks. Take it off of the grill and set aside. Grill chicken until fully cooked, about 4-6 minutes per side or until juices run clear. Take it off of the grill and set aside.
To assemble the sandwich layer lettuce, red onion, chicken and sliced pineapple onto each bun. Drizzle with homemade teriyaki sauce and serve immediately.
For the teriyaki sauce: Add oil and garlic into a medium saucepan. Cook for 1 minute. Add in soy sauce, water, honey, brown sugar and ginger. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes.
In a small bowl mix together the cornstarch and water until combined. Slowly add this to the teriyaki sauce and whisk until the sauce has thickened. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of the spoon.
