Ingredients

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 6 slices of bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 8-10 cherry tomatoes
• Wooden or metal skewers
• For the Marinade:
• - 1/4 cup olive oil
• - 1/4 cup soy sauce
• - 2 tablespoons honey
• - 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• - 2 cloves garlic, minced
• - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• - Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a bowl, whisk together all the marinade ingredients until well combined.
2. Place the chicken cubes in a ziplock bag and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and gently massage the chicken to ensure it is evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.
3. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
5. Thread the marinated chicken, bacon, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes onto the skewers, alternating ingredients.
6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
7. Remove from the grill and let the skewers rest for a few minutes. Serve hot and enjoy!
