Caribbean Jerk Chicken Skewers

CARRIBBEAN JERK CHICKEN KABOBS

Loving our Weber grill.  It's so easy and makes clean-up a breeze.  This recipe was really good.  The chicken was tender, flavorful and just flat out delicious.  The only thing I'd change next time is to only use a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.  Matt's not a pinapple fan, so I used red onion.  Other than that, it was very tasty.

1-1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-1/2 inch pieces

1 fresh pineapple, cut into 1-1/2-inch chunks (I substituted red onion)
 
DIRECTIONS:

HEAT grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Thread chicken onto 12 skewers alternately with bell peppers and pineapple.    

GRILL 15 min. or until chicken is done, turning frequently.
