Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
Note
Soak wooden skewers in water 30 min. before using. Wrap ends with foil before grilling to prevent them from burning. If using metal skewers, use just 1 metal skewer when assembling each kabob.
Tip 2
Variation
Prepare as directed, substituting 1 lb. skinless salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch chunks, for the chicken. Or, substitute 1 lb. uncooked peeled and deveined extra-large shrimp for the chicken, reducing the grilling time to 4 to 6 min. or until shrimp turn pink.
Tip 3
Substitute
Substitute 1 drained can (20 oz.) pineapple chunks in juice for the fresh pineapple.
