With chicken and veggies broiled together, these kabobs are nearly a meal in themselves, needing only a green salad and bread to complete.

Ingredients 

MARINADE
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon pepper
TO COMPLETE RECIPE
2 to 3 (12 ounces) Gold'n Plump® Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, cut into 1-inch squares
1 can (8 ounces) pineapple chunks, canned in own juice
1 small zucchini, cut into twenty-four 1/4-inch slices

Instructions 

Combine all marinade ingredients in a zip-seal plastic bag. Add chicken and seal bag. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally.

When ready to cook, position oven broiler rack 5 inches from heating element; preheat broiler. Lightly coat a baking sheet or broiler pan with cooking spray.

Thread chicken onto skewers, alternating with pineapple and zucchini. Place skewers on prepared pan; baste zucchini and pineapple with marinade. Set aside remaining marinade.

Broil for 4 minutes; turn and baste with marinade. Broil for 2 more minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. (Test center pieces for doneness, since they take longest to cook.) Discard remaining marinade.

Tips 

You'll need four, 12-inch metal skewers to make these kabobs.

 

Variations 

1 teaspoon jarred minced garlic may be used in place of minced fresh garlic. Twenty-four, 1-inch cubes of fresh pineapple may be substituted for canned.

Nutritional information may change when substituting your chicken product. If you choose to substitute frozen chicken for this recipe, it's best to thaw before cooking.
