Ingredients
- about 450 g Chicken Breast
- 1 cup Pineapple Chunks
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 2 tbsp Lime Juice
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
- 1/4 tsp Dried Oregano
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Black Pepper
- 8 count Wooden Skewers
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Cut the about 450 g Chicken Breast into 2.54 cm cubes.
- 2In a bowl, combine the 2 tbsp Olive Oil, 2 tbsp Lime Juice, 2 cloves Garlic (minced), 1/2 tsp Ground Cumin, 1/4 tsp Dried Oregano, 1/4 tsp Salt, and 1/8 tsp Black Pepper. Mix these ingredients together well.
- 3Add the about 450 g Chicken Breast cubes to the marinade mixture and toss until every piece is coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- 4Thread the marinated chicken cubes and the 1 cup Pineapple Chunks onto the 8 count Wooden Skewers, alternating between chicken and pineapple.
- 5Preheat your grill to medium heat, which is approximately 175°C.
- 6Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 74°C, and the pineapple is slightly caramelized and has grill marks. This should take about 12-16 minutes total.
- 7Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately.
