Notes

  1. If using wood skewers, soak for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
  2. Dice chicken, peppers and pineapple to be the same size. If one is larger than the others they won't grill evenly.
  3. You can brush your grill with a high heat oil like vegetable oil or avocado oil to prevent your chicken from sticking to the grill.
  4. Smaller pieces will cook quicker.
  5. Rotate your skewers frequently to prevent burning.
  6. You can brush more marinade on your skewers halfway through cooking for a more intense flavor.
