1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces
2 cups 1-1/2-inch fresh pineapple chunks
1 each: red and green pepper, cut into 1-1/2-inch chunks
1/2 cup KRAFT Original Barbecue Sauce
3 Tbsp. frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
PREHEAT grill to medium-high heat. Using eight long wooden skewers (two, side-by-side, for each kabob), thread chicken alternately with pineapple and peppers onto skewers, to make four kabobs.
MIX barbecue sauce and juice concentrate; brush some of the sauce mixture onto kabobs.
GRILL 8 to 10 min. or until chicken is cooked through, turning and brushing occasionally with the remaining sauce mixture.
Serves: 4 (1 Kabob each)
Calories 240 Total fat 3 g Saturated fat 1 g Cholesterol 65 mg Sodium 480 mg Carbohydrate 29 g Dietary fiber 3 g Sugars 24 g Protein 26 g
Note
Soak wooden skewers in water 30 min. before using. Wrap ends with foil before grilling to prevent them from burning.
Variation
Prepare recipe as directed, substituting 1 lb. salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch chunks, for the chicken. Or, you can substitute 1 lb. cleaned extra large shrimp (16 to 20 count) for the chicken, but you will need to reduce the grilling time to 4 to 6 min. or until shrimp turn pink.
Substitute
Substitute 1 can (20 oz.) pineapple chunks in juice, drained, for the fresh pineapple.

I LIVE for kabobs (there I said it)!
These are yummy... I usually use whatever BBQ sauce is running around at the time.
Also, I tend to cut up too many veggies.... just keep that in mind serving size wise as you are making them.
OH! I also like to marinate my meat before I thread them, gives them more bang.0 -
yumbo!! I made kabobs last week, with the veggies it made 4 oz of chicken go alot further:bigsmile:0

Another fun choice (which I made and my brother loved) turkey kilebasa (which I may of spelled wrong). I make them with any type of meat.... TONS of variety!0
