ingredients
8 ounces unsweetened crushed pineapple (with juice)
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 chicken breast halves (6 ounces each), skinned and boned
1/2 cup diced onions
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon minced jalapeno pepper (wear plastic gloves when handling)
1 teaspoon minced fresh cilantro
directions
Strain the pineapple; reserve the juice. Place the pineapple in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
Place the pineapple juice in a shallow nonmetal dish. Add the soy sauce, honey, garlic, and red-pepper flakes. Mix well. Add the chicken and turn to coat all sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
Preheat the grill or broiler. Coat the grill rack or broiler pan with no-stick spray.
Remove the pineapple from the refrigerator. Add the onions, brown sugar, lime juice, jalapeno peppers, and cilantro. Mix well. Let stand at room temperature. Remove the chicken from the marinade; reserve the marinade.

Turn and cook for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center. Check by inserting the tip of a sharp knife into 1 breast. Transfer the marinade to a small saucepan. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 5 minutes, or until reduced by half. Pour over the chicken. Top with the salsa.
To freeze, pack the cooled cooked chicken and sauce in a freezer-quality plastic container. Pack the salsa in a separate freezer-quality plastic container. To use, thaw both overnight in the refrigerator, Cover the chicken and microwave on high power for,3 minutes. Top with the salsa.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

I have made this recipe several times, twice for 50+ people. I have add mango and green, red, and orange peppers to it to add more color to salsa. I cook to taste so the amounts very. Have gotten many complements. When grill not available if have sauted chicken breasts using an egg wash and seasoned flour to coat.
