Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Kabobs

At my house, kabobs are our staple BBQ item to cook during the summertime! They're easy to make and yummy, but they're generally very diet-friendly as well! And, let's be honest, who doesn't love firing up the grill? Here's a fantastic recipe to get your mouth watering! Ingredients:

• 2 pounds of chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized cubes
• 1 cup pineapple juice
• 1 cup Teriyaki sauce
• 2 green red peppers, cut into cubes
• 1 onion, chopped into cubes
• 1/2 fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
• 3 tablespoons garlic powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

1. Marinate the chicken cubes in the pineapple juice with Teriyaki sauce overnight for at least 7 hours.
2. When ready to cook, heat the grill (you can also bake them in the oven at 375°F for 20 minutes).
3. While the grill is heating up, grab your skewers and start assembling the chicken, bell peppers, onion, and pineapple.
4. Mix garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
5. Lay the skewers on a platter and sprinkle the seasoning on each skewer.
6. When ready, place each skewer on the grill, turning every 5 minutes until fully cooked. The cooking time on the grill is usually 15 minutes.
7. When finished cooking, take skewers off of the grill and set aside to let cool.
8. Serve with brown rice and fresh vegetables!
