My mom loves everything pineapple! She eats them fresh or incorporates them into dishes. Whenever we order pizza, she likes the one with pineapple. For dessert, her number one pick is anything that has pineapple in them. She’s crazy about pineapple! When I introduced her to this bacon pineapple BBQ chicken, she lost her mind! We love how we can throw this delicious dish using only seven ingredients. It is also very quick to make, making this excellent for busy and lazy days.
The chicken breasts are smothered in BBQ sauce and topped with pineapple, bacon, red onions, and Mozzarella cheese. The combination of flavours and colours makes this dish super filling and a beauty! Enjoy a Hawaiian-inspired meal without turning the grill on with this scrumptious chicken meal all year round! Simply pop this in the oven, and thirty minutes dinner is ready!
