Okay Folks, it's that time of the summer! The hours are long and luxurious, the weather is perfect for a fun day out on the patio with a cold beer and the grill :) At least that's what I'll be doing this Labor Day. In honor of Summer soon coming to an end I wanted to make something fun and easy to eat. A classic item that is the Chicken Kebab *glorious music in the background here*.
I don't know about you but I absolutely love pineapple with- well pretty much everything. And I think it will add a refreshing sweetness to today's dish. Let's take a look at the ingredients list:
________________
Skewers (soaked in water for at least an hour prior to grilling)
Grill (oven works too)
Chicken Breast- sliced into 1 or 2 inch cubes
Pineapple - I buy mine pre-chopped
Red Onion
Green Pepper
Marinade - La Choy Orange Ginger is my weapon of choice
2 Tablespoons Soy sauce
**for an extra kick you can add some chilies or saracha to the mix
1. Defrost an chop your chicken into cubes and set aside
2. Mix your marinade, soy and spices of your choice. Mix until well blended
3. Toss chicken in marinade and let sit in the fridge for at least an hour.
Prep Time!:
4. Get your grill going
5. Wash and chop your remaining veggies into bite sized cubes
6. SKEWER AWAY! Make your own yummy creations, stick by stick!
7.Place on the grill and let cook 10-15 min
8.Ensure your meat is cook through and Carefully remove from grill. enjoy! The best part of cooking is sitting around afterwards munching on your very own food creation!
In this situation we didn't let our sticks soak long enough and end up burning them :( which made them not so pretty. But they still turned out tasting amazing!
I'm so happy to have finally made the first step in my cooking blog! I will post a few recipes now and then. Esp. the ones I find to be the most tasty :) Please feel free to leave comments on how anything can be improved or your take on the recipe and the results.
Cooking is so fun!
