Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, sriracha, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
- Step 2: Add the cubed chicken to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Step 3: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and soak wooden skewers in water for about 15 minutes if using.
- Step 4: Thread the marinated chicken and pineapple onto the skewers alternately until all ingredients are used.
- Step 5: Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. Serve hot!
Notes
- For storage, keep any leftover skewers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain freshness. When reheating, gently warm the skewers in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave for a quick and easy meal without drying them out. For serving, pair the skewers with a refreshing cilantro-lime rice or a crisp green salad to balance the sweetness and spice of the dish. As a chef's tip, marinate the chicken for longer if you have time; even an hour or two will deepen the flavors and make for a juicier result.
