Description
BBQ Pineapple Chicken Kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make grilled dish featuring tender chicken, sweet pineapple, and colorful vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken cubes, barbecue sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
- Thread the chicken, pineapple, bell peppers, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between the ingredients.
- Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a spicy kick, add some jalapeño slices to the skewers.
- You can substitute the chicken with shrimp or tofu for a different protein option.
- Serve with a side of rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
