Number Of Ingredients 15

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup teriyaki marinade sauce
2 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
½ cup chopped onion
2 teaspoons minced jalapeno pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
¼ cup Dijon mustard
¼ cup honey
1 ½ tablespoons white sugar

1 ½ tablespoons cider vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons lime juice
¾ pound mixed salad greens
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
4 cups corn tortilla chips

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a bowl, and cover with the teriyaki marinade sauce. Marinate at least 2 hours in the refrigerator.
