Ingredients:

Serving

1 tsp whole allspice
1 tsp black peppercorns
4 whole cloves
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp dried thyme leaves
8 garlic cloves
3 large shallots, peeled and cut in half
3 inches piece peeled fresh ginger, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, halved and seeded
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups cubed pineapple (about 1 medium)
1 1/2 cups red bell peppers , 1 inch pieces (about 1 large)
1 1/2 cups green bell peppers , 1 inch pieces (about 1 large)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
cooking spray

Directions:

Preparation.
Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add first 3 ingredients to pan; cook for 1 minute or until lightly toasted and fragrant.
Place spices, brown sugar, and next 9 ingredients (through jalapeño) in a blender; process until smooth. Combine spice mixture and chicken in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal and marinate in refrigerator 2 hours, turning occasionally. It is better if you marinate overnight.
Prepare grill.
Remove chicken from bag, reserving marinade. Thread chicken, pineapple, and bell peppers alternately onto each of 8 (12-inch) skewers. Brush reserved marinade onto pineapple and bell peppers. Sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Place kebabs on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 8 minutes or until chicken is done.
