Ingredients

Chicken
  • 1 ¼ pounds chicken breast diced into bite-sized pieces, boneless skinless
  • ½ cup pineapple juice orange juice may be substituted
  • ⅓ cup yellow mustard
  • ¼ honey
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil optional (keeps chicken from sticking to grill)
  • 1 chili powder heaping teaspoon
  • ½ teaspoon salt or taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • wooden skewers soaked for at least 20 minutes prior to grilling
  • 2 red bell pepper seeded and diced into 1-inch pieces, large
  • 1 yellow onion chopped into 1-inch ‘stacks’ of a few pieces of onion, large
Honey Mustard Dip
  • ⅓ cup yellow mustard
  • ¼ cup honey

Instructions

Make the Chicken Kabobs:
    Cup of Yum
  1. To a gallon-sized ziptop plastic bag, add the chicken, pineapple juice, yellow mustard, honey, optional olive oil, chili powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, seal bag, and squish the chicken around gently (don’t puncture bag) but thoroughly enough to coat evenly. Place bag in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to 3 hours, to marinate.
  2. Place skewers in water to soak, and chop vegetables while chicken marinates.
  3. Remove chicken from fridge and thread on wooden skewers. On each skewer I typically add 2 pieces chicken, 2 to 3 pieces of red pepper, 1 stack of onion, 2 pieces chicken, 2 to 3 pieces red pepper, 1 stack onion; but use whatever ordering is desired. Continue threading the skewers until all chicken and vegetables have been used.
  4. Lightly brush leftover marinade over the vegetables so they’re coated.
  5. Place skewers onto a hot grill or grill pan and cook for about 7 minutes, or until chicken is done and cooked through, flipping every few minutes as necessary for even cooking. While waiting, make the honey mustard dip.
Make the Honey Mustard Dip:
  1. To a small bowl, add the mustard, honey, and whisk to combine.
  2. Serve kabobs with dip.

Notes

  • Kabobs are best warm and fresh, but ingredients can be taken off skewers and placed into an airtight container and will keep for up to 4 days in the fridge. Reheat gently prior to serving if desired.
