Teriyaki Chicken Skewers

Makes 3 servings (can easily be doubled)

3 boneless chicken breast halves cut into 2" squares

1 green pepper, cut into 1" squares

1 red pepper, cut into 1" squares

1/2 fresh pineapple, cut into 1" squares

2 Tbls sugar

4 Tbls Soy Sauce

4 Tbls Mirin (sweetened sake) If you can't find this, eliminate the soy and use 8 Tbls teriyaki sauce

6 wooden skewers, soaked in water

Place chicken pieces (you should have 18 pieces) in one large baggie. Place pepper and pineapple pieces in another baggie. Mix sugar, soy and mirin (or teriyaki sauce) in small sauce pan and heat just until sugar dissolves. Cool. Pour half of marinade over chicken and the other half over the peppers and pineapple. Marinate for 1 to 2 hours.

Thread ingredients on six wooden skewers alternating. You should have three each of red pepper, pineapple, chicken and green pepper.

Prepare grill. It should be hot. Spray grill with oil and grill the skewers turning as needed and basting with the marinade from the veggies and pineapple, until chicken is cooked, approximately 10 minutes
