Pineapple chicken and peppers - a delicious and easy dinner to grill up in about a half hour.
Ingredients
  • 8 bamboo skewers
  • 1 lb. raw skinless, boneless chicken - cut into 16 1-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup reduced-sodium tamari soy sauce, gluten-free
  • 2 tsp. sesame oil
  • 2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
  • 1 8-oz can pineapple chunks in juice, drained
  • 1 medium red bell pepper - cut into 16 1-inch chunks
  • ½ large red onion, cut into 16 1-inch chunks
Instructions
  1. Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes
  2. Place chicken in resealable plastic bag (or container) add soy sauce, oil, and ginger; seal bag and shake gently to mix. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes to marinate.
  3. Preheat gas or charcoal grill on medium heat.
  4. Place a piece of chicken, pineapple chunk, bell pepper, and onion onto a skewer. Repeat, so the skewer has two pieces of each ingredient. Repeat with seven remaining skewers. Discard marinade that contained chicken.
  5. Grill skewers on covered grill for 4-5 minutes on each side or until chicken is no longer pink in the middle.
  6. Serve immediately.
