Don’t forget, you’ll need skewers for this recipe and you can probalby find them at your local grocery store, at, Walmart or Amazon.

Combine oil, honey, soy sauce, and pepper to taste in a medium bowl and whisk together. If you would like to add some pineapple juice, now is the time to do it.
Separate 1/4 cup of the honey mixture and set aside for brushing the kabobs later.
Cut the peppers and onions into skewer-sized pieces, place them in the baggie with the chicken, and allow them to marinate for another hour.
Cut the chicken into decent-sized cubes that will fit nicely on the skewers, then add the chicken to the honey mixture in a plastic bag and allow to marinate for at least one hour.
Drain the marinade sauce from the chicken and veggies, and thread the chicken, peppers, and onions on the kewers, alternating between the chicken, green peppers, red peppers, and onions.
VERY lightly oil your grill grate and place skewers on the grill. Allow to cook for about 13 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken is done. Lightly brush kabobs with marinade frequently.
Remove from the grill and enjoy your chicken kabobs.
