Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
  • 2 bell peppers (red and yellow)
  • 1 large red onion
  • 2 zucchini (optional)
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Extra BBQ sauce for brushing
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Lime wedges
  • Cooked rice, quinoa, or grilled bread for serving
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, ground ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: Cut chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces, add to marinade, cover, and let marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Chop the Vegetables: While chicken is marinating, chop pineapple, bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini into similar-sized chunks.
  4. Assemble the Kabobs: Thread chicken pieces, pineapple chunks, and vegetables onto skewers.
  5. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. Soak wooden skewers if using.
  6. Grill the Kabobs: Place kabobs on the grill, brush with BBQ sauce, and grill for 10-15 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Remove from grill, let rest, and serve with lime wedges and cilantro.

Notes

Allow the chicken to marinate longer for better flavor. Chicken thighs are key for juiciness.
