These juicy Grilled Chicken Pineapple Sliders are a delicious and healthy meal idea that's perfect for summer. The chicken is marinated in a zesty combination of lemon juice, lime juice, cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper, which ensures that every bite is packed with flavor. The pineapple rings add a touch of sweetness, while the teriyaki sauce brings a salty, savory flavor to the dish. The Hawaiian bread rolls provide the perfect base for this slider, and the red onions and lettuce add a refreshing crunch. This recipe is perfect for a BBQ or a picnic.

Instructions

1.In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lime juice, cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper.
2.Pour half of the mixture into a large resealable bag, and add the chicken. Seal the bag, and toss to evenly coat. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.
3.Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
4.Remove the chicken from the marinade, and discard the remaining marinade. Grill the chicken and pineapple on the preheated grill, basting frequently with the teriyaki sauce, until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear.
5.Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice chicken into strips.
6.Assemble the sliders with lettuce, red onion, and pineapple on the rolls, and place sliced chicken on top. Serve immediately.
