Grilled pineapple chicken skewers with a sweet and tangy polynesian glaze are a perfect for an easy family dinner option or for serving at your next BBQ.
In a small saucepan, whisk together pineapple juice, water, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, cornstarch, soy sauce, and brown sugar until smooth and well combined.
Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
While the sauce is cooling, prepare ingredients for the skewers. Cut chicken thighs into 2-3 in. cubes. Chop the onion and bell pepper into thick pieces that will easily slide onto the skewers without breaking.
Assemble skewers by threading pieces of onion, peppers, chicken, and pineapple onto your skewers.
Place skewers on grill over medium heat. Cook until the chicken is done in the center. Baste the skewers with the prepared Polynesian sauce on both sides as you turn them to cook all sides evenly.
