Pineapple Chicken Kabobs Recipe

Here in our home we love Pineapples and just like most people who love pineapple, we love to toss them onto our grill. They make a great grilled fruity appetizer and we love to use pineapple juice in our homemade marinades and salad dressings too!

In celebration of summertime and the delicious fruit that summer brings, Del Monte Fresh Produce is offering U.S. and Canadian consumers a special savings on Del Monte Gold® Extra Sweet Pineapple.

Pineapple Chicken Kabobs Recipe

(Makes 6 (2 kabob) appetizer servings)
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons lime juice, divided
3 tablespoons lite soy sauce, divided
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into (24) 1-inch pieces
Ground pepper to taste
2 cups DEL MONTE GOLD® EXTRA SWEET PINEAPPLE Chunks
1 medium Del Monte® red bell pepper, cut into (24) 1-inch squares
½ large Del Monte® sweet onion, cut into (24) 1-inch pieces
Peanut oil
To make basting sauce, in a small bowl whisk together honey, 2 tbsp. lime juice, and 2 tbsp. soy sauce until smooth. Sprinkle chicken pieces with remaining 1 tbsp. of lime juice and soy sauce. Sprinkle with pepper to taste. Marinate 15 to 30 minutes.

Directions:
Preheat grill to medium-high. Thread chicken, pineapple, red pepper, and onion alternately on 12 (6-7-inch) skewers. Discard and leftover marinade. Brush lightly with peanut oil. Grill for 10 to 15 minutes, turning to cook all sides. Brush with basting sauce the last 5 to 10 minutes. Serve any remaining sauce over kabobs.

Note: For a spicy variation, omit ground pepper and sprinkle chicken with Jamaican Jerk seasoning to taste.
