Grilled Chicken Pineapple Skewers Recipes

CHICKEN AND PINEAPPLE SKEWERS

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, add the ketchup, soy sauce, honey, mustard, sugar, garlic, and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and cook gently until thickened, about 10 minutes. Set aside and cool.
• Heat an outdoor grill or a grill pan. Cut each chicken thigh into 2 pieces. Peel the pineapple and cut it into 1 1/2-inch chunks. Alternating between the chicken and pineapple, thread the pieces onto the skewers. Brush them with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. Remove the garlic cloves from the barbecue sauce and discard; put about half the sauce into a small bowl for later. Brush skewers with some of the sauce. Cook them on the grill, basting regularly with the barbecue sauce, until cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with reserved barbecue sauce on the side for dipping.

GRILLED ORANGE CHICKEN THIGH SKEWERS WITH PINEAPPLE AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine coconut aminos, orange juice, avocado oil, ginger, and chile-garlic paste in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Season marinade with salt and pepper and add chicken pieces. Gently squeeze the sides of the bag, coating all of the chicken with the marinade. Squeeze out as much air as possible, seal, and spread out chicken pieces in a single layer inside the bag.
• Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning the bag a few times during that time.
• Drain marinade into a small saucepan and add pineapple juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and boil until marinade has reduced to 1/2 cup, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, alternately thread each skewer with chicken, bell pepper, onion, zucchini, and pineapple. Repeat until each skewer is filled.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Set skewers on the hot grill grate. Brush with reduced marinade, reduce heat to medium, close the lid, and grill 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and brush with marinade reduction. Monitor for flare-ups, and move skewers as necessary to manage any flames. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve skewers over hot cooked rice.

GRILLED CHICKEN & PINEAPPLE SKEWERS

Steps:

• Cut your chicken in to 2 inch chunks & put to the side.
• Slice your cored fresh pineapple into 2 inch slices& put to the side.
• Wipe off the mushrooms to clean them, (recommend not to wash them in water.).
• In a large bowl, place all of the ingredients including the marinade, and mix together.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for about 45 minutes.
• Run bamboo skewers through water just a little bit to get them wet so they do not burn.
• Place the chicken, pineapple, and mushrooms on the skewers in any order you want.
• You will grill them at about 400 or so degrees (constantly turning over), when the chicken reaches 170 degrees inside, they are done!
• Serves well next to a good macaroni salad!
