Today’s Recipe: Spicy Pineapple Chicken Skewers

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a mouthwatering recipe for spicy pineapple chicken skewers. This dish is perfect for summer BBQs or whenever you’re craving a tropical twist on classic grilled chicken. The combination of sweet pineapple and spicy seasonings will leave your taste buds dancing!

Ingredients:

  • 500g chicken breast, cubed
  • 1 small pineapple, cut into chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • mixing bowl
  • skewers
  • grill
  • basting brush

Start by marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. In the meantime, soak your wooden skewers in water to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, alternating with chunks of pineapple, red bell pepper, and red onion. Brush the skewers with olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char.

Serve the spicy pineapple chicken skewers hot off the grill with a side of rice or a crisp salad. The smoky flavors of the grill combined with the sweet pineapple and spicy chicken will transport you to a tropical paradise in every bite.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving is around 300g, and has an estimated calorie count of 350 calories.

One clever tip for this dish is to sprinkle some fresh cilantro over the skewers before serving. The bright herbaceous flavor adds a burst of freshness that complements the spicy-sweet chicken perfectly.

I hope you give these spicy pineapple chicken skewers a try and enjoy them with your friends and family. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite vegetables or adjust the level of spiciness to suit your taste. Happy grilling!
