Ingredients

For the Marinade:

  • ¾ cup pineapple juice; 6 ounce can
  • 2 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • ¼ cup minced red onion
  • ⅓ cup teriyaki sauce
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Kabobs:

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts; cut into chunks
  • About 4 cups assorted vegetables; green , red peppers red onions,
  • Canned pineapple chunks; 8 ounce size can

Instructions

  • Place the cut up chicken into a container with a lid. Set aside while you prepare the marinade.
  • Combine the ingredients for the marinade together in a small bowl.
  • Pour the marinade over the chicken, cover and allow to marinade for at least 30 minutes to one hour in the refrigerator.
  • Soak the wooden bamboo skewers for at least 30 minutes while the chicken marinades.
  • Assemble the kabobs by adding the chicken pieces, pineapple chunks and vegetables to the bamboo skewers.
  • Place the skewers on a preheated outdoor grill and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side or until chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°
  • Remove the chicken and vegetables from the skewers before serving.

Notes

  • You can marinade the chicken for up to 8 hours if you have the time. The longer you leave the chicken in the marinade, the stronger the flavors become.
  • It is important to never reuse a marinade that had raw chicken in it. This is due to the risk of salmonella and other food-borne illnesses that can occur when bacteria from the raw chicken makes contact with the marinade. I
