Ingredients
1
env
(0.7 oz.) GOOD SEASONS Italian Dressing Mix
2
tbsp
brown sugar
2
tbsp
oil
2
tbsp
soy sauce
1
tsp
ground cinnamon
1
tsp
ground thyme
1/2

lb
boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-1/2 inch pieces
3
red bell peppers, cut into 1-1/2 inch pieces
1
fresh pineapple, cut into 1-1/2-inch chunks
Instructions
Step 1
Mix first 7 ingredients until well blended; pour over chicken in large bowl. Stir to evenly coat chicken. Refrigerate 30 min. to marinate.
Step 2
Heat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Thread chicken onto 12 skewers alternately with bell peppers and pineapple.
Step 3
Grill 15 min. or until chicken is done, turning frequently.
Substitute 1 can (20 oz.) pineapple chunks, drained, for the fresh pineapple chunks and/or a green pepper for the red bell pepper.
Broil kabobs instead of cooking them on the grill.
Spray the unheated grate of the grill, away from the fire, with cooking spray before using to prevent sticking. Or, brush the grill grate with oil.
