Instructions
Creating Pineapple Chicken Kabobs is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade. Mix well to ensure the chicken is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour for maximum flavor.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken is marinating, cut the pineapple, bell pepper, and red onion into 1-inch pieces.
4. Soak the Skewers: If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
5. Assemble the Kabobs: Thread the marinated chicken, pineapple, bell pepper, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between the ingredients for a colorful presentation.
6. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).
7. Grill the Kabobs: Place the kabobs on the grill. Cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F.
8. Serve: Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
By following these steps, you’ll create fantastic Pineapple Chicken Kabobs that will delight your guests and satisfy your taste buds.
