2 large chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, if you're in a pinch)
- 1 large bell pepper (any color you fancy), cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1. Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees F. As the oven warms, soak your wooden skewers in water for about 15 to 20 minutes to prevent them from burning in the oven.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, ketchup, garlic, and ginger. This is your Hawaiian-inspired marinade that'll give the kebabs their signature flavor.
3. Toss the chicken pieces in the marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. This little wait is a good time to ask the kids to set the table or to share a fun moment together.
4. Thread the marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini onto the skewers, creating a pretty pattern that'll get everyone excited about their dinner.
5. Arrange the skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for a quick cleanup. Season your colorful kebabs with salt and pepper, giving them a little love.
