Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 tsp fresh orange zest
1/3 c fresh orange juice
3 Tbsp brown sugar, firmly packed
2 Tbsp soy sauce
4 tsp fresh ginger, minced
4 tsp rice vinegar
1 Tbsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1 1/2 lb chicken breasts, boneless, skinless (cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes)
1 medium pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into 1 inch chunks

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium size bowl, mix orange zest, juice, sugar, soy sauce, ginger, vinegar, oil, and coriander. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade.
  • 2. Stir chicken in remaining marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  • 3. Lift chicken from marinade and drain briefly (discard marinade). Thread chicken and pineapple chunks on thin metal skewers - alternating 2 chicken chunks and 1 pineapple chunk. Brush reserved marinade over pineapple.
  • 4. Place skewers on a lightly greased grill 4-6 inches above a solid bed of hot coals or as desired on gas grill. Cook, turning and basting with reserved marinade, until chicken is no longer pink in center (6-8 minutes).
