Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the coconut aminos, honey, garlic, ginger, and cayenne pepper. Reserve about 2 tablespoons to baste the chicken when it's done grilling.
  2. Season the pieces of chicken with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with the cornstarch; stir well to coat each piece. Transfer to the bowl with the remaining marinade. Allow the chicken to marinate for 30 minutes over the counter or for 2 hours in the fridge.
  3. Thread the marinated pieces of chicken together with pineapple and onion chunks onto skewers.
  4. Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan over medium heat and grill the chicken skewers until the meat is nicely charred and cooked through. Baste with the remaining 2 tablespoons of marinade.
  5. Serve with lime wedges and garnish with sesame seeds.

  • Freeze: Remove the skewers, then freeze leftover chicken and onion in an airtight freezer-safe container or bag for up to 3 months. I do not recommend freezing the pineapple. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
