Today’s big kahuna chicken teriyaki sandwiches take that regular teriyaki chicken to another level. The chicken gets placed on a sandwich along with ham, pineapple, and cheese. The final results are AMAZING!
The chicken gets marinade in teriyaki sauce and cooked on the grill. The pineapple also get grilled and coated with sauce. It’s another great recipe to enjoy while we still can grill.
