Pineapple Salsa Chicken
I had fresh pineapple salsa on my mind when I entered the market. It was going to top off some perfectly grilled fish. It was barely noon, and I was drooling over what was going to be on my plate for dinner. But, as it turned out, the butcher didn’t have what I wanted (I was thinking swordfish or mahi mahi), so I could either give up my salsa idea or settle on chicken. Since I couldn’t quite get the pineapple salsa off my mind, and those ingredients were already in my cart, I opted for the chicken. Pineapple Salsa Chicken turned out to be a great substitution.
