Instructions
Making Pineapple Chicken Kabobs is an easy and enjoyable process. Follow these steps to create this incredible dish:
1. Prepare the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
2. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, ground ginger, and black pepper.
3. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes (ideally in the refrigerator).
4. Assemble the Kabobs: Thread the marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion onto the skewers alternately.
5. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C).
6. Cook the Kabobs: Place the kabobs on the grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
7. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, sprinkle sesame seeds over the kabobs for presentation. Serve immediately, and enjoy the fresh, delicious flavors!
