This is an absolute favorite of mine that my dad makes! We generally call it Baby Crap Chicken because of the way the marinade looks when it's done. Never fear though! It's excellent! I do not like cillantro at all, but this recipe has it and I don't even mind! Just try it. I usually serve it with corn on the cob and rice. I'm making it for my Mother-in-law's birthday dinner because she loves pineapple so I'm excited to see how she likes it. :)
1/2 med. pineapple, peeled, cored, and chopped (or 1 can pineapple)
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 c. unsweetened pineapple juice (or reserved juice from can)
1/2 c. lime juice
1/4 c. fresh cilantro, chopped
1 tsp. lime zest
4 chicken breasts
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
2 T. honey
In large blender, combine all but chicken breasts and puree. Pour marinade over chicken, either in a large bowl or in bags(which I prefer) and let marinade in refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight. Grill for 30 - 40 minutes, turning frequently.
