Pina Colada Chicken

Shellbelle's Note:

This is another Mr. Food recipe that is prepared on the grill. Mr. Food is often on in the morning during my local news while I am eating breakfast and if I see a recipe that sounds good I post it here to make at a later date. That's why I have so many Mr. Food recipes listed here.
