Fantastic!! The sweet and salty combination of the chicken sauce and pineapple was amazing together. Very satisfying and delicous. I served this with roasted broccoli and brown rice.

We did not enjoy this recipe at all. The pineapple was overwhelming and the peanut butter was too strong in the sauce. We wil not make this again.

I loved this recipe! It's very fresh, simple, delicious, and quick to make. I don't think I used the correct chili sauce ( I used chili paste) so my sauce was very think. Still, I used less of it and put everything on a bed of mixed green, turning this into a wonderful dinner salad that we will surely repeat!

I liked this recipe but felt the sauce had too much soy sauce. It did not taste authentic. I instead added a little soy and water (to thin it as the soy would have). I also added a little brown sugar. With my modifications I would give it 4 stars.

Great summer dish, pretty quick to put together for a weeknight. Made the chicken on the grill. The pineapple was a great addition to the spice in the chicken and sauce.

The pinnapple chutney was great, and the chicken was pretty simple. I attempted to use a 1/8 cup Siracha instead of sweet chili sauce. Although it wasn't too hot the sauce was inedible. Need to find "sweet chili sauce" as I would like to try this again,

This was really tasty. I made the recipe just as written and my boyfriend and I both really liked it. The only change I made was to use a mix of half hot chili sauce and half sweet just to add a little kick. I give it 4 out of 5 because though the cooking is really quick, the prep ends up making a bunch of dishes and a mess. It's worth it once in a while but not going to be something I throw together all the time. Highly recommended though!
