Ingredients
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 2 tsp Tabasco hot sauce
- 1 packet KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce mix and dry rub
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch cubes
- 6 mushrooms, cut in half sliced into ¼-inch slices
- 1/2 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces cut into 1-inch squares
- 1/2 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces cut into 1-inch squares
- 1/2 orange bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces cut into 1-inch squares
- 1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 12 1-inch pieces of pineapple
- 1 tsp salt
- freshly cracked black pepper to taste
- 6 metal or wood skewers
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!
