Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. SAUCE: Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend well. Season with salt and white pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  2. FIERY SPICE BLEND: Mix all ingredients and keep in an airtight container.
  3. CHICKEN: In a medium bowl (or Ziploc bag), mix chicken pieces with chicken ingredients listed. Toss to coat, cover and refrigerate 2-24 hours.
  4. Meanwhile, place the quartered jalapenos and cubed onion in a little olive oil to soak. Toss together with some salt & pepper and set aside. You can leave them loosely covered on the counter.
  5. Soak wood skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Remove the jalapenos and onion from the oil, shaking off excess. Reserve the oil for the grill.
  6. To the skewers, place a piece of chicken, then a jalapeno, then a cubed layer of the onion (then pineapple chunks if using). Repeat to fill up skewers.
  7. Brush grill rack with reserved oil and then place skewers onto the grill about 4-6 inches away from coals and cook for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with any remaining oil, until chicken is cooked through. Serve with sauce.
