Introduction
Serves 6, 1 chicken breast each. A bit of coconut and pineapple give this dish flavor of Hawaii but I've reduced calorie/fat grams from the recipe (originally from the a cereal box, Post Shredded Whea,t about 20 years ago). it's been a family favorite for years and cutting down the fat and calories makes it a no guilt treat for our family.
