These Grilled Chicken & Pineapple kabobs are bursting with bold flavours. The sweet and savoury teriyaki sauce mixed with fresh peppers, pineapple, red onions and tender chicken totally hit the spot! I love making my own teriyaki sauce as most contain gluten. Tamari is gluten free and always my go to. I am obsessed with grilled pineapple. It is one of my favourite things to eat in the summer months. These kebabs taste like dinner and a sweet dessert!
