Recipe View Assemble the Sandwiches: Transfer the cheesy chicken and pineapple to the bottom halves of the onion rolls. Top with romaine lettuce and tomato slices. Spread Thousand Island dressing on the top halves of the rolls and place them over the lettuce and tomato.

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can use a grill pan on the stovetop or bake the chicken and pineapple in the oven at 375°F (190°C).
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as mozzarella or Swiss.

    Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will be dry.
