This great summer recipe was given to me by a friend years ago. You can put any vegetables you want on the skewers. Don't be worried when you see the light corn syrup in the ingredients, it comes together great! It's a great change. You can even skip the vegetables and just skewer the chicken. Enjoy!

HAWAIIAN KABOBS

The delicious combination of flavors & the grilled pineapple really makes this come together. I have posted the original recipe, which is meatless, but have added chicken with great results (just be sure to marinade separately from veggies and discard chicken marinade). This is great for summer BBQs and camping! Prep time includes bare-minimum marinating time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best for kabobs. Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces.
  • Make a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use a combination of olive oil, soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the chicken, the more flavor it will absorb. If you can, marinate the chicken for several hours or overnight.
  • Skewer the chicken and vegetables: Use metal or bamboo skewers to skewer the chicken and vegetables. Make sure the skewers are long enough so that you can easily flip the kabobs on the grill.
  • Grill the kabobs over medium heat: Cook the kabobs over medium heat for about 10 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  • Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce: Serve the kabobs with a dipping sauce such as teriyaki sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or pineapple sauce.
