Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
-
Place the chicken chunks in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the chicken is well coated with the marinade. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or ideally, up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
-
While the chicken is marinating, soak the wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during cooking. If you are using metal skewers, you can skip this step.
-
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
-
Assemble the kabobs by threading the marinated chicken, pineapple, bell peppers, and red onion alternately onto the skewers.
-
Place the assembled kabobs on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are slightly charred.
-
Serve the Tropical Chicken Kabobs hot off the grill, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for an extra touch of tropical flair.
