Instructions

1. Prepare the Marinade:

In a large bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, vegetable oil, and black pepper.
Reserve ¼ cup of the marinade in a separate container for basting.

2. Marinate the Chicken and Vegetables:

Add chicken cubes, onions, red bell peppers, and garlic cloves to the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat evenly.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.

3. Preheat the Grill:

Heat your outdoor grill to high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

4. Assemble the Kabobs:

Remove chicken and vegetables from the marinade, discarding the used marinade.
Thread chicken, onions, and peppers alternately onto the soaked skewers, leaving space between each piece for even cooking.

5. Grill the Kabobs:

Place the kabobs on the preheated grill.
Cook for 12–15 minutes, turning frequently and brushing with reserved marinade until the chicken is browned and fully cooked.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

Transfer the kabobs to a serving platter and serve hot.

Notes

Soak Skewers: Soak bamboo skewers to prevent burning on the grill.
Even Sizes: Ensure chicken and vegetables are cut uniformly for even cooking.
Temperature Check: Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F.
