Hawaiian Chicken Kebabs Made With A Simple Olive Oil Marinade
You need to marinate the chicken in a ziplock bag before grilling. Let the chicken absorb the flavors of and be ready to go on the grill. Olive oil is the perfect ingredient for this recipe. Make sure you choose a good quality and pure olive oil that is safe for grilling.
Here you can see my Hawaiian chicken kebabs are marinated and ready for the grill. Look at all the wonderful colors. So pretty and so delicious!
This wonderful sauce also has oregano, salt, pepper, and a little bit of mustard. The combination of flavors was perfect, and 30 minutes in the fridge was enough time for the chicken to marinate. I didn’t want to make it on the sweet side because pineapples give these chicken kebabs the touch of sweetness they need.
