Hawaiian Aloha Chicken Burgers

Firstly, take chicken breasts and place them in a zippered bag with soy sauce. Seal the bag tightly and refrigerate for 30 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade.

Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook bacon slices until they are evenly browned on both sides, taking about 10 minutes. Remove the cooked bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

Next, spread butter evenly onto the cut sides of hamburger buns. This step helps to create a rich and savory flavor profile for your dish.

Now, prepare the grill by preheating it to medium heat and lightly oiling the grates. This ensures that your chicken will cook evenly and prevents it from sticking to the grill.

Remove the chicken breasts from their marinade, discarding any excess soy sauce. Place the chicken on the preheated grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until it shows good grill marks, is no longer pink inside, and the juices run clear.

Once the chicken is almost done cooking, brush each piece generously on both sides with teriyaki sauce to finish grilling and add a sweet and savory flavor. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on each chicken breast, covering it with a lid to help the cheese melt onto the chicken.

While the chicken is grilling, place the hamburger buns on the grill and cook until they are toasted and showing grill lines, taking about 2 minutes.

To assemble the dish, spread mayonnaise evenly onto the grilled sides of each bun. Then, place a cooked chicken breast on top of each bottom bun, followed by 1 1/2 slices of bacon, a slice of pineapple, a slice of lettuce, and a slice of tomato. Finally, place the top bun on each serving to complete the dish.
