👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Pound chicken to a 1-inch thickness for even grilling.

Brush oil over chicken and sprinkle Jamaican jerk seasoning evenly on both sides.

Combine pineapple, red pepper, jalapeño pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a small bowl for the salsa.

Place chicken on the hot grill and lower heat to medium.

Grill until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 12 to 14 minutes, turning halfway through.

An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
