- 3 chicken breasts cut into bite size pieces
- 1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions
- Soak bamboo skewers in a shallow pan filled with warm water. Let soak for 30 minutes.

Add the chicken, veggies and pineapple to the large bowl and stir well to coat. Let marinate for 30 minutes or overnight.
- Preheat grill on medium high heat.
- Thread chicken, bell peppers, pineapple, onion and another piece of chicken onto the skewer. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
