Ingredients For Teriyaki Sausage and Chicken Kabobs

• Chicken breasts – Cut boneless, skinless chicken breasts into uniform 1″ chunks for even cooking. Chicken thighs are also a great option if you have them on hand already.
• Kielbasa sausage – We love turkey sausage but you can use regular kielbasa or chicken sausage if you prefer.
• Bell peppers – We like to use yellow, green, and red bell peppers but use your favorite!
• Red onion – We love the flavor red onion adds to this dish but you can use yellow or white onion if that’s what you have available to you.
• Fresh pineapple – Fresh pineapple will hold it’s shape better than canned.
• Brown sugar – Adds sweetness and offers some caramelization.
• Teriyaki marinade – Use your favorite store bought jar or make a batch of homemade Teriyaki marinade.

How To Grill Teriyaki Sausage And Chicken Kabobs

Place the chicken pieces in a bowl and cover them with the marinade for at least an hour up to 24 hours.

Alternate adding protein, veggies and pineapple to each skewer.

Place chicken skewers on the grill over medium-high heat. Once the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, they are done and ready to enjoy.

Storage And Reheating

Fridge: Store leftover chicken kebabs in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Storage is easier if you remove veggies, meat and pineapple from the skewers.

Freezer: We do not recommend storing the veggies and pineapple from this dish as they will not have a great texture when you reheat them. If you want to freeze the meat on it’s own, store in an airtight container or freezer bag.

To reheat Teriyaki chicken kebabs, heat in the microwave until hot throughout. Reheat without the skewers themselves.

These Teriyaki kabobs look like summer on a plate! You will love all the juicy chicken and sausage with the charred pineapple and peppers plus the Teriyaki marinade just takes them over the top. Add this recipe to your meal plan this week and enjoy!
