What do you do when you have some chicken breasts, a pineapple, a hungry crowd and no real dinner plans??
Take out the skewers and grill up some kabobs.
Easy!

Ingredients
2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
2 green bell peppers, tops removed, seeded and chopped
1 onion cut into chunks
1 fresh pineapple, cut up into chunks
1 tbsp sesame oil
3 tbsp coconut aminos
1 tsp red pepper flakes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp ginger root, minced
Salt and black pepper to taste

Place chunks of chicken and bell pepper into a large Ziploc bag. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together sesame oil, coconut aminos, red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper.
Pour marinade over chicken and bell pepper, make sure all is evenly coated, seal bag, and place in the fridge for 1 hour prior to grilling.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Using metal, or wooden skewers (if using wood, be sure to soak skewers for 1 hour prior to grilling), skewer chicken, bell pepper, onion and pineapple, alternating as desired.
Grill skewers 12 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes

*Optional: Serve with some coconut nectar!
