Grilled chicken is a favorite at our house. We grill chicken year-round and this Spicy Pineapple Brown Sugar Chicken is a favorite. With only 5 ingredients, it is a snap to make. We usually grill a double batch and eat it all week for a quick lunch. I love this chicken on top of a salad or in a tortilla wrap. YUM!
