Looking for a quick under 20 minute main dish for dinner?
Search no more! This chicken recipe is perfect to throw into the weekly rotation. I love to serve with garlic mashed potatoes and a citrus fresh salad. The mashed is comforting and the citrus really brings out the pineapple in the chicken and adds such a great balance.
