Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, honey, fresh lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper until smooth.
  2. Add the cubed chicken thighs to your marinade, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, aiming for 400-425°F. Clean and oil the grates.
  4. Thread alternating pieces of marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion onto skewers.
  5. Carefully place the assembled skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 10-14 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes.
  6. Let the kabobs rest for 3-5 minutes before serving to retain juiciness.
