Party Perfect Chicken Kabobs image

This is a wonderful kabob recipe that is a easy to make. It looks great on a platter and tastes delicious. Some notes:Marinade overnight for the best taste. You may marinade for as little as 3 hours however the taste won't be as good. Make sure you soak your skewers for 3 - 4 hours in water so they don't burn on the grill. I placed the pineapple on their own skewers so they wouldn't burn. Also, I put them on the top rack of the grill a few minutes before the chicken was done; just long enough to warm them.

Time 1h16m

Yield 20-25 kabobs, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup honey
2/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 garlic cloves, chopped into chunks
2 large white onions, cut into 2 inch chunks
2 red bell peppers, cut into 2 inch chunks
2 green peppers, cut into 2 inch chunks
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 pineapple, cut into 2 inch chunks (or substitute with 4 8oz jars)
3 -4 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 2 inch chunks
skewer (MAKE SURE TO SOAK IN WATER FOR SEVERAL HOURS)

Steps:

  • Combine oil, honey, soy sauce, and pepper in large bowl, then divide.
  • From that same marinade take a small amount (about 1/2 cup) and have it on reserve. (You will use this to marinade the chicken once on the grill.).
  • Add 2 cloves of garlic into each bowl.
  • In one bowl, add the chicken and mix well.
  • In the second bowl add the vegetables and mix well. (I did not marinade the pineapple chunks because I like the flavor they add on their own.).
  • Refrigerate 8 - 12 hours making sure to stir halfway through.
  • Drain the marinade from the chicken and vegetables and discard. Thread chicken and vegetables alternately onto the skewers.
  • Preheat the grill to a medium-high setting.
  • Place skewers directly on the grill and cook for 12-16 minutes, turning and brushing with the reserved marinade several times.
  • Place pineapple skewers on grill with about 5 minutes remaining in cooktime to allow them to warm.
