Hey there, foodies! Get ready to elevate your BBQ game with this mouthwatering recipe that’ll have your neighbors “casually” stopping by your backyard! Trust me, I’ve made this multiple times, and it’s always a showstopper.
Let’s dive into my secret weapon: Honey-Glazed Chipotle Lime Chicken Skewers with Grilled Pineapple Salsa. Yes, it’s a mouthful to say, but wait until you actually taste it!
What You’ll Need:
– 2 lbs chicken thighs, cut into chunks (because let’s be real, chicken breast just doesn’t cut it for BBQ)
– 4 tablespoons honey
– 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (adjust if you’re feeling brave!)
– Juice of 3 limes
– 4 garlic cloves, minced
– Fresh cilantro
– 1 pineapple
– 1 red onion
– 2 bell peppers
– Salt and pepper to taste

Now, let’s get cooking:
1. First, marinade that chicken! Mix honey, chopped chipotle peppers, lime juice, garlic, and half the cilantro. Let that baby sit for at least 2 hours (overnight if you’re a planning queen like me 👑).
1. Thread your chicken onto skewers – and please, soak those wooden skewers first unless you want a bonfire!
1. For the salsa, cut pineapple into chunks, dice the onion and peppers. Grill the pineapple until you get those gorgeous char marks (about 2-3 minutes each side).
1. Fire up that grill to medium-high heat. Place your skewers on, turning occasionally until they’re cooked through (about 12-15 minutes).
1. Chop up that grilled pineapple, mix with your diced veggies, remaining cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
The result? Juicy, sweet-and-spicy chicken with a tropical salsa that’ll transport you straight to flavor town!
Pro tip: Serve with some grilled corn on the cob and cold margaritas. Because why not? It’s 5 o’clock somewhere!
