Time 3h25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound of chicken breast cut up into large bite sized chunks {approx. 1x1 inch pieces}
1 fresh ripe pineapple {You can use canned, but fresh is amazing!} cut into bite sized chunks {approx. 1x1 inch pieces}
1 red onion
1 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp water
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce {we always use low sodium}

Steps:

In a medium sized bowl, combine garlic powder, brown sugar, ground ginger, black pepper, oil, water & soy sauce. Whisk vigorously for 1 minute until combined. Add chicken and mix so all chicken is coated with sauce. Dump entire contents into a gallon sized zip lock bag {or cover bowl with saran wrap} and place in fridge. Marinate for 3 - 4 hours, mixing contents of bag/bowl every hour to ensure even marinade. Place wooden skewers in a pan of water and allow them to absorb the water while chicken is marinading. When chicken is done marinading, slice red onion into large 1 inch pieces. Alternatively, skewer Pineapple, Onions and Chicken until skewers are full, leaving 2" on each end. Spray grill with non stick spray and place skewers on grill. Cook for 10 - 15 minutes or until chicken is done, rotating every 5 minutes to ensure even grilling. Serve immediately over rice.
