Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Green bell pepper
• 1 large Red onion
• 2 cups Fresh pineapple chunks
• 1 cup Sweet and sour sauce
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 pieces Wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place them in a bowl.

Step 3

Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the chicken cubes. Sprinkle garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the chicken, then toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Cut the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion into 1-inch pieces to match the size of the chicken cubes.

Step 5

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or set up a broiler if you’re cooking indoors.

Step 6

Thread the chicken cubes, bell peppers, red onion, and pineapple chunks alternately onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.

Step 7

Place the assembled kabobs onto a plate or tray and brush them generously with half of the sweet and sour sauce, reserving the other half for basting during cooking.

Step 8

Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with the reserved sweet and sour sauce. Ensure the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a minute or two before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Sweet Sour Chicken Kabobs hot with additional sweet and sour sauce on the side, if desired.
