Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 1 cup pineapple, fresh and diced
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Rub this spice mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts and set aside.
Step 3
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly brush it with the teaspoon of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 5
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the pineapple relish. In a medium bowl, combine the diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Mix well and season with a pinch of salt if desired.
Step 6
To serve, place a grilled chicken breast on a plate and top with a generous spoonful of pineapple relish. Serve immediately with your choice of side, such as steamed vegetables or brown rice.
