This is a dish that I made up as I went along! It's easy and uses ingredients that most of us have on hand. There is probably enough marinade for twice the amount of chicken. I wasn't going to have a chance to stir the chicken so I wanted to make sure that it covered all of the chicken. I served this over brown basmati rice. The marinating time is not included. ****NOTE: I do not recommend marinating this for more than 2 hours. I find it gets a grainy texture if marinated too long. Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch squares |
2 cups fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch squares |
2 cups red peppers, cut into 1-inch squares |
1/2 cup soy sauce |
1/4 cup rice vinegar |
1/4 cup canola oil |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
2 teaspoons garlic, minced (about 4 cloves) |
2 teaspoons ginger, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard |
Directions:
1. Mix all marinade ingredients and add chicken. Marinate for 1 to 2 hours, no more.
2. If you are using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for 2 hours.
3. Heat grill to medium-high.
4. Alternate chicken, pineapple and pepper pieces on skewers. Place on grill until chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side.
