Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 cup pineapple juice
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 2 cups pineapple chunks
• Wooden or metal skewers

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, olive oil, and minced garlic until well combined.
2. Place the chicken cubes in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.
3. Preheat the grill to medium heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
4. Thread the marinated chicken cubes, bell pepper pieces, onion pieces, and pineapple chunks alternately onto the skewers.
5. Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are slightly charred.
6. Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
7. Serve the Hawaiian chicken kabobs hot with a side of rice or a fresh salad.
