Chicken Pineapple Skewers

Chicken Pineapple Skewers

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1″ cubes
  • Fresh Pineapple Chunks
  • 1/3 c. plus 2 tbsp. Caesar dressing
  • 1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • Juice of 1 lemon, divided
  • kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Half of a French baguette, cut into 1″ cubes
  • 1 pt. cherry tomatoes
  • 6 romaine lettuce leaves, washed and dried
  • 1/2 c. grated Parmesan

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a medium bowl, toss chicken with dressing, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and half of lemon juice. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes and cut up a fresh pineapple into 1 inch chuncks.
  3. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Divide and thread chicken and pineapple onto 6 skewers. In a medium bowl, toss bread with 2 tablespoons olive oil to coat. Alternating with tomatoes, thread the bread and tomatoes onto remaining skewers.
  5. Brush grill pan with olive oil. Add the chicken skewers and grill until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove and set aside. Grill the bread and tomato skewers until charred and tomatoes begin to burst, about 5 minutes.
  6. Top romaine leaves with chicken, croutons and tomatoes. Drizzle with more dressing, sprinkle with parmesan and squeeze lemon on top of each serving.
