1 tablespoon
grilled pineapple, diced
1 cup
fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions
1

Begin by marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of tamarind paste, coconut milk, garlic, and ginger for at least 30 minutes to infuse the flavors.

2

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's well-oiled to prevent sticking. While the grill heats up, prepare the grilled pineapple salsa by combining diced grilled pineapple, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.

3

Set aside to let the flavors meld. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

4

During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken with additional tamarind-coconut glaze for extra flavor.

5

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve the grilled chicken topped with the grilled pineapple salsa for a burst of flavor and color.

6

Enjoy your unique and delicious grilled chicken dish!
