Instructions
Crafting BBQ Pineapple Chicken Kabobs is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, vegetable oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, black pepper, and salt.
2. Marinate Chicken: Add the cubed chicken to the marinade. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If you’re using a grill pan indoors, preheat it as well.
4. Prepare Skewers: Thread the marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, bell pepper pieces, and onion pieces onto the skewers. Alternate the chicken with veggies and fruit for color.
5. Grill Kabobs: Place skewers on the grill. Cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken’s internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) to confirm it’s fully cooked.
7. Remove and Rest: Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
8. Serve Warm: Garnish with fresh herbs or additional pineapple if desired.
