Put your marinade and cubed chicken together and marinate at least 2 hours. I also cut my veggies and put them in another bag with a little of the same marinade. I do this in the morning and then all I have to do at dinner time is assemble my kabobs and grill them! I serve with a rice pilaf of brown rice and wild rice.

Directions

  • Whisk orange marmalade, balsamic vinegar, red wine, olive oil, chives, basil, garlic, sage, garlic salt, and kosher salt together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Pour about 1/4 of the marinade into a resealable plastic bag; add mushrooms, bell pepper, and red onion. Squeeze air out of bag and seal.

  • Pour the remaining marinade into a separate resealable bag; add chicken. Squeeze air out of bag and seal. Marinate vegetables and chicken in the refrigerator, 2 to 8 hours.

  • Remove vegetables and chicken from bag and discard marinade. Thread vegetables, chicken, and pineapple onto skewers.

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  • Cook kabobs on the preheated grill until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes per side.

Cook's Note:

If you love basil like I do, you can add more basil to the marinade!

The kabobs can also be broiled in the oven.

Very nice tasting marinade. I had to sub fresh squeezed OJ for the orange marmalade as I never keep anything that sweet in the house plus most have HFCS, was thinking of adding some natural honey, but decided to skip that and as I never salt anything (I let others decide on their salt level) left both salts out as well (recipe already has garlic.) Everything else the same. I think this would be good to use as a salad dressing too. I marinated separately as suggested (veggies apart from chicken) for about two hours. Will definitely make again!
