I have been to Sizzler twice in my life, both of which were complete disasters!
I remember my grandparents taking my sisters and me to Sizzler when I was really young. I am not sure if it was before or after the meal, but I do remember throwing up on the sidewalk in front of the restaurant. The next time I went to Sizzler was my junior year in high school. I was asked to a dance by someone other than who I wanted to go with. He was so, so nice but it was a very awkward situation. While sitting quietly and uncomfortably at my table, I look out the window to see my Mom and a few of my sisters spying on me! Literally peeking in the window and laughing uncontrollably! They seemed to think it was hilarious that I was on this date and had to come witness how uncomfortable I looked for themselves.
I don’t know if I can muster up the courage for another trip to Sizzler anytime soon, so I thought we would try to make a version of their Malibu Chicken at home. We love grilled chicken and this is one of our favorite recipes. The chicken breasts are marinated in a dry rub, smothered in a pineapple mustard sauce and topped with ham, swiss cheese and a pineapple ring. You can serve on a plate or on a bun for a delicious sandwich!

- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 12 thin slices deli ham
- 6 slices canned pineapple
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons BBQ seasoning (I used Famous Dave's)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

- 1 tablespoon plain yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
Sauce
Instructions
- Put one chicken breast in a gallon zip-top bag and pound it until the entire breast is uniform in thickness, then move to a platter or rimmed sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.
- Season both sides of each chicken breast with the BBQ seasoning, cover and refrigerate at least an hour.
- Combine the sauce ingredients (butter, pineapple juice, mustard, honey, molasses, Worcestershire sauce and chili powder) in a medium mixing bowl and whisk until smooth, then set aside.
- Grill one side of each chicken breast and each pineapple ring over direct heat until they are seared and have nice grill marks, about 2 minutes.
- Flip each chicken breast and ring, brush with the sauce, and cook another two minutes.
- Move the chicken to the indirect part of the grill and brush the top of each with the sauce.
- Top each breast with two slices of ham and drizzle the ham with the sauce.
- Put a slice of cheese then a pineapple ring on each breast and drizzle again with the sauce.
- Continue cooking with the grill lid down until the internal temperature reaches 160º, about 10 minutes.
