Grill chicken 8-12 minutes, or until cooked through.

Chop one slice of pineapple into very small pieces and add to the saucepan.

Zest the lime into the pan.

Simmer over medium - low heat until the liquid reduces by half.

place sliced pineapple on hot grill and cook 2-3 minutes per side--just enough to leave grill marks.

Squeeze the juice of the lime over the dish.
13
I like to serve it with a fresh summer salad--the sauce makes a nice dressing when cooled.
