Stages of cooking
-
Pour marinade into a large resealable bag. Add chicken breasts, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
-
When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate with cooking spray.
-
Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
-
Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
-
When you turn the chicken, place pineapple slices onto the grill; cook for about 2 minutes per side. Toast rolls on the grill if desired.
-
Place a grilled pineapple slice onto each chicken breast, then top with provolone. Close the lid and cook until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
-
Transfer chicken breasts, pineapple rings, and cheese to bottom rolls, then top with lettuce and tomato. Spread dressing onto top rolls and place onto sandwiches.
