Chicken Kabobs

Submitted by anme7039

"A great recipe for BBQ chicken."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1 boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into chunks
• 1 onion, sliced into wedges
• 2 pineapple rings, cubed
• 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 cup mango, cubed
• 2 celery ribs, chopped into 1 inch wedges

• SAUCE

• 1⁄4 cup soy sauce
• 1⁄4 cup ketchup
• 1⁄4 cup peach juice or 1/4 cup left over pineapple juice
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1⁄4 cup oil
• 1⁄2 tablespoon brown sugar

directions

1. Cut all veggies and chicken into equal sized pieces.
2. Combine all the sauce ingredients in a sauce pan and boil for a few minutes, let cool.
3. Pour most of the sauce into a zip lock bag and place cut up chicken in the bag and squeeze it all around until it is mixed up nice and good.
4. Place in refrigerator for at least an hour (the longer, the better I feel).
5. Put veggies in the reserved sauce.
6. When ready to cook, heat the grill up (I use my George Foreman with good results and broiler).
7. Thread skewers with chicken and veggies.
8. Grill until chicken is done (about 10-15 minutes), basting constantly with the reserved marinating sauce from the veggies.
9. (You can double the sauce ingredients if you feel you do not have enough; also feel free to add more veggies. I add peppers and mushrooms sometimes).

I made this for 30 hungry teens for a "progressive dinner" and it was a success. All the teens told me how much they loved the kabobs and the coach wanted the recipe to make for his entertaining, too. I used peach juice (drained from can of peaches). These were slightly sweet in flavor and very tender (marinated for 2 days). Thanks Anme for answering my request in the forums. Roxygirl.

Made as posted but I replaced the mango with zucchini and used Splenda brown sugar and half the oil. Made on the George Foreman grill they were done in about 10 minutes. I served them with rice for a quick, healthy meal. Made for Review My Recipe Tag. Thanks for sharing Anme.

What was I thinking on trying this recipe for Mothers Day ~ My family was shocked on how good this was. There was noting left for me for left overs. Sorry but I was too late on taking a photo with them on the skewers. Highly recomend making this dish. I did cut back the oil to half. Thanks for posting this recipe for us to try.
