Instructions

Combine the pineapple juice, Tabasco, and BBQ dry rub in a large bowl and mix until the dry rub is completely dissolved. Reserve 1/2 of the marinade in a small bowl for basting, and set aside. Preheat the grill or the oven to 425 F.
Into the bowl place the chicken cubes and let stand for 5 minutes.
Make the skewers by alternating the chicken cubes with the veggies until all are used. For example: chicken, red onion, green bell pepper, mushroom, pineapple, red onion, orange bell pepper, and so on and so forth.
Place the skewers on a hot grill or oven and cook for 5 minutes on each of the four sides or until the chicken is fully cooked, basting them on each side with the reserved marinade.

Notes

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 mins before using, so they don’t burn while grilling
Save some of the marinade for basting the skewers while grilling for an added touch of flavor
More marinating time = more flavor!
