Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb Chicken Breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup Pineapple Chunks
- 1 Bell Pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Onion, cut into 1-inch pieces (red or yellow)
- ¼ cup Soy Sauce
- ¼ cup Brown Sugar
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- Coconut Rice (for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
- Slice the chicken into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
- Marinate the chicken cubes in the marinade for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the fridge.
- Prep the bell peppers and onions, chopping them into 1-inch pieces.
- Assemble the kabobs by alternating marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, bell peppers, and onions on skewers.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high. Soak wooden skewers in water for 10-15 minutes to prevent burning.
- Grill the kabobs for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Make the coconut rice while the kabobs grill: cook jasmine rice with coconut milk and water for a creamy side dish.
- Serve the kabobs over coconut rice and enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to experiment with different veggies or add fruits like mango for a twist!
