Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: Mix together the barbecue sauce, pineapple juice, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and Sriracha. Marinate the chicken in this mixture for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- Grill the Chicken and Pineapple: Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill along with the pineapple slices for 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through.
- Prepare the Sauce: Pour the excess marinade into a saucepan, bring to a boil, and let cook for 4-5 minutes until slightly reduced. Serve drizzled on the sandwiches.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Layer the grilled chicken and pineapple on the hamburger rolls with sliced red onion, jalapeno, greens, and a drizzle of the homemade barbecue sauce.
