Ingredients

– 1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch chunks
– 1 bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (any color)
– 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces

– Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
Creating delicious Pineapple Chicken Kabobs is easy when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.
2. Make Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
3. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken cubes in the marinade mixture. Allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes (up to 2 hours for more flavor), covered, in the refrigerator.
4. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
5. Assemble Kabobs: On each skewer, thread a piece of marinated chicken, followed by a chunk of pineapple, a piece of bell pepper, and a piece of red onion. Repeat this pattern until the skewer is filled.
6. Grill Kabobs: Place the assembled skewers on the hot grill. Cook them for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
7. Check Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) to be safe for consumption.
8. Serve Hot: Once cooked, remove the kabobs from the grill. Allow them to rest for a few minutes before serving.
