Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts pounded to ½ inch thickness
- 1 tablespoon Jamaican jerk seasoning
- red pepper flakes, cilantro
Sauce
- 1 cup canned crushed pineapple
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (may sub white vinegar)
- ¼ cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- ⅔ cup water
- 2 tablespoons corn starch
