Place the chicken in a small baking dish. Pour the lime juice mixture all over the chicken, making sure the chicken is covered, the add the water to the baking dish. Place in the oven and bake for 18 to 20 min, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. While the chicken is baking, pretend to dip your toes in the ocean! Slice each chicken breast into 4 long pieces. Push a skewer lengthwise through each chicken piece to form tree trunks. There should be 8 chicken skewers. Stick 2 chicken skewers into each pineapple slice. The pineapple is your island.
