Salad for dinner? Hear us out.

"I love dinner salads in the summer, especially if the grill is involved," says Colleen Milne of TheFoodBlog.net, adding that the chicken for this salad is marinated in jerk seasoning for a spicy kick that can be dialed up or down. 

The chicken only takes about 10 minutes to grill, and grilling the pineapple adds a lovely depth of flavor. 

"This Caribbean-inspired salad is fresh, full of flavor and fuss-free," Milne tells Fox News Digital. "Everything summer eating should be."
