Sweet ‘n savory Hawaiian Grilled Chicken Kabobs made with marinated chicken, fresh pineapple, red potatoes, purple onion, and bell peppers, then grilled to perfection and drizzled with Honey Ginger Teriyaki Sauce! Perfect for all your summer grilling!
Oh my gosh, you guys….Father’s Day!!! Are you ready? I, for one, am NOT. Sure, I’ve thought about it, but I currently have zero presents and zilch plans. Time to get a move on!
I’m pretty much in the same boat every year at this time. Knowing that Father’s Day is just around the corner, wishing that I had started planning for it sooner. But alas…..here I find myself….with less than two weeks to go and not even so much as an idea….!
To be honest, I think I’m a little jaded. From years and years of failed Father’s Day gift giving. Between the hammock and the lawn games and the hanging chairs, all of which have been returned, I must say my confidence in my ability to pick out a winning Father’s Day gift is limited. No wonder I put it off until the last minute….!
Luckily, though, at least I have the menu planned. Hawaiian Grilled Chicken Kabobs! I made these the other night and my husband LOVED them! And he’s not typically one to add fruit to a savory dish. But something happens to the pineapple when it’s mixed with chicken and potatoes and peppers and onions, covered in a sweet pineapple teriyaki marinade, and grilled to perfection. The result is absolutely delicious! Delicious enough to have the hubby going back for seconds and thirds….and that’s not counting the brats he started with!
Now, on to the gift. Unless you think an amazing meal counts as gift enough…..!? I won’t hold my breath on that one….but I will look forward to making these again in just a few short days! And I hope you will, too. You WON’T be disappointed!

These kabobs look fantastic! I was saying the other day I have not made kabobs in years; may have to change that 🙂
ha! I am the same way .. I haven’t even thought about Father’s Day yet. . and always seem to slide everything in just under the wire. 🙂 but I love the idea of grilling and these hawaiian grilled chicken kabobs look amazing!!!
These are my very favorite flavors!!! These are my heaven, thanks for posting!
These kebabs look so good, I like all the veggies and those potatoes look delicious.
We have been grilling every weekend, I’m totally adding this to the rotation!
These look amazing! So now I also have the Fathers Day Meal ready! I simply have to find a gift, unless sweet kisses from daughters are good enough, in which case we have that covered – and I know you do too!
I absolutely LIVE for kabobs in the summer. They’re so easy and delicious. I am loving your version!
This is one of the best grilling foods for the summer, Cathy! I love the flavors, especially that grilled pineapple. Yum!
What a delicious BBQ recipe!
These look delicious and perfect for Father’s Day! My husband is impossible to shop for. He doesn’t really need or want anything, but I feel bad to not give him a gift! A good meal may be just the right thing 🙂
This is my kind of meal – healthy, easy and delicious! 🙂 I’m in the same boat with my husband – no ideas and only a few days left!!
This is what summer is all about — grilling up some delicious skewers! I love these Hawaiian skewers, Cathy — they look amazing!
oh I’d love to grill this! looks fabulous!
We are some what ready for Father’s Day tomorrow, but we are spending some time at the beach tomorrow as well so hoping it turns out to be a beautiful day! These look amazing!
Delicious!! I made a few alterations. I didn’t have Ginger so I used 1/8t of nutmeg and 1/4 ground sage. I cut the red pepper by 1/4 because I didn’t know how spicy my kids would think it was… I did add 1T of cornstarch to thicken the sauce. And I cut the apple juice and added a shot of Jack Daniels Whiskey since I didn’t have Bourbon. Can’t make Bourbon chicken without liquor! It was amazing! And the kids couldn’t taste it nor were they affected for all of the extra cautious parents. Thanks for the recipe!

However, think on this, suppose you were to create a killer title?
I am not saying your information isn’t good, however suppose you added something that makes people desire more?
I mean Hawaiian Grilled Chicken Kabobs | Lemon Tree Dwelling is a little boring.
