Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix the soy sauce, cider vinegar, honey, canola oil, and green onions. Place the mushrooms and chicken into the mixture, and stir to coat. Cover, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.
- Preheat grill for high heat.
- Remove the mushrooms and chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes; set aside.
- Wrap the chicken chunks with bacon, and thread onto skewers so that the bacon is secured. Alternate with mushroom halves and pineapple chunks.
- Lightly oil the grill grate. Arrange skewers on the prepared grill. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, brushing occasionally with remaining soy sauce mixture, until bacon is crisp and chicken juices run clear.

CHICKEN BACON KABOBS
Thanks to the pineapple and sweet apricot glaze, these chicken kabobs have a tropical feel. This recipe has a few unusual steps, like soaking the chicken in cranberry sauce, but the end result is worth the effort. The chicken kabobs are a nice combination of sweet and savory. When you get a bite of bacon it's a surprise. Apricot...

Steps:
- 1. Soak the skewers for about 30 minutes in the apple juice. (This helps the skewers not to burn and infuses the apple flavor into the chicken kabobs.)
- 2. Take the skinless chicken breast and cut the long way into 1 1/2 inch thick strips until you have 8 chicken strips. (You can also purchase them already cut.) Cut away any remaining fat or skin. Clean the chicken thoroughly.
- 3. Soak the chicken in cranberry juice for 30 minutes.
- 4. While the skewers and chicken are soaking, cut the fresh pineapple and green bell pepper into 8 bite-size chunks. (You can use canned pineapple chunks.)
- 5. Mix all the seasonings together in a small bowl.
- 6. Season the chicken liberally on all sides.
- 7. Once everything has been soaking/seasoned and cut into bite-size chunks, you're ready to begin assembling the kabobs. Pierce one end of a chicken strip with a skewer. Then pierce one end of a bacon strip and lay over the chicken. Allow both chicken and bacon strip to lay to one side of the skewer. Add a chunk of pineapple and a chunk of green bell pepper to the skewer. Snake the chicken and bacon strips over the chunks, then repeat adding the chunks until all the chicken and bacon strip is assembled on the skewer.
- 8. Repeat for the remaining skewers.
- 9. Now that all the skewers have been assembled, place the chicken bacon kabobs on the grill, preheated medium to low. Grill 15-20 minutes turning halfway through the cooking process.
- 10. While kabobs are on the grill, prepare the glaze. Reduce apricot jam on low heat, stirring often.
- 11. Once the kabobs are done grilling, brush the jam over the kabobs. Turn them and brush the other side allowing the kabobs to cook with the glaze for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill and enjoy! :)
Tips:
- Choose high-quality chicken and bacon for the best flavor.
- Cut the chicken and bacon into uniform pieces so they cook evenly.
- Season the chicken and bacon with your favorite spices and herbs.
- Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using them to prevent them from burning.
- Alternate the chicken and bacon on the skewers to create a visually appealing presentation.
- Grill the kabobs over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or barbecue sauce.
