2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf, crushed
1 Scotch bonnet or habanero chile, stemmed and seeded
1 scallion, chopped
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, chopped into 1 1/4-inch cubes

Steps:

Time 1h15m

Yield 16 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 whole garlic cloves
1 lemon, juiced
8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 fresh pineapple
16 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, add the ketchup, soy sauce, honey, mustard, sugar, garlic, and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and cook gently until thickened, about 10 minutes. Set aside and cool.
  • Heat an outdoor grill or a grill pan. Cut each chicken thigh into 2 pieces. Peel the pineapple and cut it into 1 1/2-inch chunks. Alternating between the chicken and pineapple, thread the pieces onto the skewers. Brush them with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. Remove the garlic cloves from the barbecue sauce and discard; put about half the sauce into a small bowl for later. Brush skewers with some of the sauce. Cook them on the grill, basting regularly with the barbecue sauce, until cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with reserved barbecue sauce on the side for dipping.

Time 4h35m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 14

¼ cup coconut aminos (soy-free seasoning sauce)
½ cup orange juice
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon chile-garlic paste, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, each cut into 5 pieces
¼ cup pineapple juice
3 (24-inch) long metal skewers
¾ cup red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
½ large onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 ½ cups fresh pineapple chunks
1 ½ cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Combine coconut aminos, orange juice, avocado oil, ginger, and chile-garlic paste in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Season marinade with salt and pepper and add chicken pieces. Gently squeeze the sides of the bag, coating all of the chicken with the marinade. Squeeze out as much air as possible, seal, and spread out chicken pieces in a single layer inside the bag.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning the bag a few times during that time.
  • Drain marinade into a small saucepan and add pineapple juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and boil until marinade has reduced to 1/2 cup, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Meanwhile, alternately thread each skewer with chicken, bell pepper, onion, zucchini, and pineapple. Repeat until each skewer is filled.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Set skewers on the hot grill grate. Brush with reduced marinade, reduce heat to medium, close the lid, and grill 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and brush with marinade reduction. Monitor for flare-ups, and move skewers as necessary to manage any flames. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Serve skewers over hot cooked rice.
