Learn how to make delicious Hawaiian Chicken Skewers. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1.5 pounds of chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 cup of fresh pineapple chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup of soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoons of minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon of grated ginger
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

If you’re out of fresh pineapple, canned ones work well too, just ensure they’re unsweetened. Feel free to swap the bell peppers with any colorful vegetables you have on hand, like zucchini or cherry tomatoes, to add your personal touch.

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, coconut oil, garlic, and ginger to create the marinade.
  2. Add the cubed chicken to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or set your oven to 400°F if you’re roasting.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken, pineapple, and bell peppers onto the soaked skewers, alternating ingredients for a colorful presentation.
  5. Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char. If roasting, place the skewers on a lined baking sheet and cook for the same duration.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Remember, the key to perfect skewers is patience and attention to detail, much like the care my grandma took in her kitchen. The joy of cooking is in these small moments of connection with what we create.
