Words & Brush Recipe Corner: Pineapple Chicken Skewers

Pineapple Chicken Skewers

By Henny Shor, Jerusalem Post, August 16, 2025


                                      Pineapple Chicken (photo credit: HENNY SHOR)

Yields 10 to 12 Skewers.


Ingredients: 

1 kg. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 4-cm. (1½-inch) cubes

3 cups fresh pineapple chunks

2 or 3 bell peppers, cut into chunks (mix colors)

1 large red onion, cut into chunks

2 Tbsp. olive oil

Salt & pepper


Marinade & Glaze:

1/3 cup soy sauce (or tamari)

1/3 cup fresh orange juice

¼ cup honey

1 Tbsp. olive oil

2 tsp. minced garlic

½ tsp. ground ginger

Salt & pepper to taste


Directions:

In a bowl, mix all the marinade ingredients and pour half of the marinade over the chicken in a zip-top bag or bowl, setting the rest aside for later. Marinate the chicken in the fridge for 1 to 3 hours or overnight. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 10 minutes before threading on the chicken and vegetables.

Toss pineapple, peppers, and onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Thread the chicken, pineapple, and veggies onto skewers. Discard any used chicken marinade.

For grilling: Grill skewers over medium heat 5 to 6 minutes per side, brushing with glaze as they cook, until chicken is fully cooked (165°F / 74°C).

For broiling: Place skewers on a foil-lined baking sheet, brush with reserved marinade, and broil about 15 cm. (6 inches) from the heat for 12 minutes. Brush again, then broil another 8 to 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.


Enjoy!

Gone is August, September arrives

 

         At last, summer days come to a close 

as a new season is near.





















Cooler days ahead

but coffee is bliss

to a new day ahead













 



Remember to take it easier on yourself.  It helps
 with the muse of creativity.  Breath in, breath out.
Your work of art or literary piece is carefully 
spun out from a spark.  Find that calm place to focus.






By evening, perhaps a dessert coffee after a comfort

meal




Let us not forget the highlights of fall

as spooky characters appear for

trick or treats

















Remember to step out of your

element and create!












As leaves change, take a drive or walk to

enjoy the scenery.  Take a break from the norm,

see the beauty of nature's brush of colors.








A time for fun




As September greats us,

keep looking ahead


Work hard, work true

on your project















Remember to take a rest
to recharge, regroup
