Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken breast
- 0.5 cups Soy sauce
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Zucchini
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks
- 12 pieces Wooden skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized chunks (about 1-inch pieces).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.
Add the chicken chunks to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables by cutting the red bell pepper and zucchini into 1-inch pieces.
Once the chicken is marinated, assemble the skewers by alternating chicken, red bell pepper, zucchini, pineapple chunks, and green onion slices. Repeat until all skewers are assembled.
To freeze for later use (OAMC): Place the skewers in a single layer on a lined baking sheet and freeze until solid, about 2 hours. Once frozen, transfer the skewers to a freezer-safe bag or container. Label and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
To cook: Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat. If cooking from frozen, thaw the skewers in the refrigerator overnight.
Grill or broil the skewers for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are slightly charred.
Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as steamed rice, noodles, or a fresh salad.
