  • Prep 25 min
  • Total 1 hr 25 min
  • Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 1 1/4 lb), cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/3 cup jerk seasoning sauce
  • 1 cup canned or fresh pineapple chunks
  • 2 medium red bell peppers, each cut into 12 wedges
  • 1/2 medium onion, cut into 12 wedges, separated into chunks

Steps

  • 1
    In shallow glass or plastic dish or resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix chicken and 1/4 cup of the jerk sauce. Cover dish or seal bag; refrigerate 1 hour to marinate, stirring occasionally.
  • 2
    Heat gas or charcoal grill. Drain chicken; discard marinade. On each of 6 (15-inch) metal skewers, thread chicken, pineapple, bell peppers and onion alternately, leaving space between each piece. Brush vegetables with remaining jerk sauce.
  • 3
    Place kabobs on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook about 15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center and vegetables are tender.

  • Leave about a 1/4-inch space between the pieces on the skewers to allow for even cooking.
  • For an easy and delicious summer supper, serve grilled kabobs with hot buttered basmati rice.
