Description

Sweet and tangy teriyaki chicken kabobs with sweet onion, red bell pepper, and pineapple make a delicious meal when served alongside regular or fried rice.

Ingredients

2 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup teriyaki marinade
4 bamboo kabob sticks
1 medium sweet onion
1 medium red bell pepper
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained

Directions

1 Cut each chicken breast into 10 pieces. Place in a glass bowl and cover with teriyaki marinade. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
2 Soak bamboo kabob sticks in water for 30 minutes.
3 Meanwhile, cut onion into four 1-inch square pieces. Repeat with bell pepper. Set aside 14 pineapple chunks and reserve any extra for another use.
4 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
5 Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Dividing ingredients evenly, alternating layers of chicken, onion, pepper, and pineapple on each kabob stick.
6 Place kabobs on the preheated grill and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Be careful when turning kabobs, they will be hot.
