Caribbean Chicken With Pineapple Salsa....

"From: Valerie Lindsey This delicious recipe has a little kick from the jalapeno peppers and sweet from the pineapple and juice. Our family LOVES this dish. Be sure to cook it on the grill to do it justice! Healthy, low fat, low sugar. This is a guilt free dish. Delicious served with baked sweet potato and green salad with a sweet vinaigrette dressing."

  1. I followed your recipe right on down, but another time might just cut the use of the jalapeno back by half! I don't mind noticing the presence of it, but just don't want it to dominate! Yeah, I know ~ What's just 3/4 of a little chili gonna do, but that's just me! Anyway, we can say that we thoroughly loved what we got & will be happy to make it again, since we do eat a lot of chicken breast! Thanks for sharing this great recipe!

  2. Delicious! What a refreshing dish. Due to our need for heat I just used the other half of the jalapeno instead of a quarter of it in the salsa. That's the only change I made. This can easily serve 4. Just cut the breast in half lengthwise prior to marinading. There is plenty of salsa to go around. Made this on a very cool... just got here... spring day. Can't wait to make this on a hot summer day. I served it as suggested with baked sweet potatoes and green salad. This is a keeper. Thanks for posting. Made for Spring PAC 2011.

<p>I'm a stay at home mother of three. 7th, 8th &amp; 11th grade. I left my corporate career&nbsp;4 years ago and have LOVED being a full time homemaker. In 2004 I finished formal training in Massage Therapy and became licensed.&nbsp; I now have my own MT practice, which I work part-time.&nbsp; I founded The Lindsey Group which is comprised of other independent therapists in my area.&nbsp; We share office space which makes it possible for all of us to be self-employed without financial burdon of monthly office lease.&nbsp; My favorite things to do are cooking and gardening. Healthy diet habits are my passion and many of my recipes are in that category. But I collect and use a lot of long time favorites from my family and my church too. My family's favorites are Caribbean Chicken with Pineapple Salsa, Mexican Lasagna, and Chicken Pot Pie. When soccer keeps me from the kitchen, my family loves it when I mix up Rice and Beans Burritos, wrap them in foil and stowe them in a cooler (no ice). We enjoy them at the soccer games. Our family favorite comfort food is Saulisbury Steak, mashed potatoes and green beans (not quite in the healthy category). That's a Southern meal in anyone's book! For good nutrition, I supplement with Pure Liquid Herbs. If you have any questions about how nutritional herbs can improve your health, I'll be glad to answer you. Just send me a Zaar note. <br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /></p>
