Ingredients

Sesame-Ginger Mayonnaise

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons purchased teriyaki baste and glaze
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped green onions
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seed, toasted
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh gingerroot

Sandwiches

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 4 teaspoons purchased teriyaki baste and glaze
  • 4 sesame-topped kaiser rolls, split
  • 1 (8-oz.) can pineapple slices, well drained
  • 4 leaves green leaf lettuce
  • 2 teaspoons chopped green onions, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Heat grill. In small bowl, combine all sesame-ginger mayonnaise ingredients; blend well. Set aside or refrigerate until ready to use.
  • 2
    Place 1 chicken breast, boned side up, between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Working from center, gently pound chicken with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/2 inch thick; remove wrap. Repeat with remaining chicken breast halves. Brush flattened chicken and pineapple slices with about 2 teaspoons of the teriyaki baste and glaze. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • 3
    When ready to grill, place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 8 to 10 minutes or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear, turning once and brushing with remaining 2 teaspoons teriyaki baste and glaze. To toast rolls, place cut side down on grill during last 1 to 2 minutes of cooking time. Place pineapple slices on grill; cook 1 minute, turning once.
  • 4
    Spread half of sesame-ginger mayonnaise evenly onto bottom halves of rolls. Top with lettuce, chicken, remaining mayonnaise and pineapple slices. Sprinkle with green onions. Cover with top halves of rolls.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To broil chicken, place on broiler pan; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times above as a guide, turning once and brushing with remaining 2 teaspoons teriyaki baste and glaze. Place rolls, cut side up, and pineapple slices on broiler pan; broil 1 to 2 minutes, turning pineapple once.
  • tip 2
    For added flavor and crunch, sprinkle the chicken with toasted sesame seeds just before serving your teriyaki chicken pineapple sandwich.
  • tip 3
    The teriyaki baste and glaze is a thick mixture that gives foods a nice glaze. Teriyaki marinade is thinner; it flavors but does not glaze foods. Use the thicker, richer baste and glaze for this Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich recipe.
