Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cups Fresh pineapple chunks
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Green bell pepper
• 1 large Red onion
• 0.5 cup Teriyaki sauce
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 10 pieces Wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and vegetable oil to make the marinade.

Step 3

Pour half of the marinade over the chicken cubes, reserving the rest for basting. Toss the chicken to coat, cover with plastic wrap, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

Step 4

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion into 1-inch pieces.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Assemble the skewers by threading the marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, bell peppers, and red onion onto the soaked wooden skewers. Alternate the ingredients for a colorful presentation.

Step 7

Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes to ensure even cooking.

Step 8

During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the skewers with the reserved marinade for extra flavor. Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy the delicious blend of savory and sweet flavors!
