Hawaiian Chicken Kebabs - Quick, tasty and perfect for summer grilling!

Summer is in full swing, and if you like to host the occasional bonfire like we do and grill out for your friends then these Hawaiian Chicken Kebabs are just what you’ve been looking for! These bad boys are quick, easy and pretty much a fix it and forget it type of deal. Another great thing about these is that they can either be grilled or baked – we do both depending on the weather!

We love having friends over and we usually host bonfires in the summertime and game night in the winter. It’s been a chilly end of June here in Minnesota so we baked these puppies this past weekend for our friends and they were the first thing to go. I don’t know what it is but when someone whips out kebabs, everyone is ALL over them! But I’m the same way so I guess I can sorta see why!

Along side brats and burgers these have to be our absolute favorite thing to grill. We always, always, ALWAYS make our own. When we try to but them in stores they are going for like $7 per kebab!! Um…how about making a ton for about $7 total! Cha-ching! I think yes! Anytime that I can make something at home, or save some money then it is an absolute no-brainer.

We then chop and dice and place these in a zip lock baggy with a bottle of Sweet Chili Sauce. Yes that is my EASY secret ingredient to making these delicious kebabs, and let me tell you, that easy delicious ingredient really sets them apart. Not a fan of sweet chili sauce? No problem, these also taste amazing with some BBQ sauce too!

I like to marinate these as long as possible, but really 30 minutes will be good enough. Make sure to keep some of the sauce to baste or spread all over the kebabs once they are done cooking.
