Easy Honey BBQ Chicken Kabobs

These kabobs consist of juicy chicken pieces marinated in a homemade honey BBQ sauce, skewered with colorful bell peppers and onion. The grilling process adds a smoky flavor, making these kabobs irresistible. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (any color)
- 1 medium onion, cut into wedges
- Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together honey, barbecue sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
- Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for better flavor.
- Assemble the Kabobs: Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, and onion onto skewers, alternating between the ingredients.
- Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
- Grill the Kabobs: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
- Serve: Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Enjoy them hot with additional barbecue sauce if desired.
