Hawaiian Chicken Kabobs, flavorful and guilt free. With summer, comes a lot of grilling. From chicken breasts to salmon to steak! We absolutely love to grill. It’s something we enjoy doing during the warmer months…. and fall (wink). This Hawaiian Chicken Kabob Recipe is a new favorite around here.
Amazing Hawaiian Chicken Kabob Recipe
As you may or may not know, I’m on Weight Watchers (officially down 20 pounds). I subscribe to a newsletter from Martha from Simple Nourished Living. She encouraged us to try a new recipe each week this summer. I haven’t been successful every week, but this chicken kabob recipe is one that I did whip up one weekend. And guess what? It was AMAZING! I find that pairing pineapple and chicken on a skewer really keeps the chicken moist. This mix of vegetables, fruit and protein is an explosion of flavor for your tastebuds.
