Spring Forward & Enjoy More Daylight For Camping! March 9th, 2025


- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped chilantro
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons minced ginger
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 teaspoon salt
To Build The Skewers:
- 1/2 lb chicken, boneless, skinless thighs work best, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium red onion, slided into one inch pieces
- pineapple wedges, cut into 1 inch cubs
- Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl or ziplock bag.
- Add the chicken to the marindae and stir to coat. Cover or seal the container, and let marinate for at least an hour, or up to 24 hours. If you’re going to marinate for longer than an hour, place it back into your cooler.
- In the meantime, fire up your grill or get your campfire going.
- Build the kabobs by threading the chicken and vegetables onto your skewers. Brush with a bit of oil.
- Grill the kabobs over medium-high to high heat, turning occasionally so they cook evenly until the chicken is cooked through – about 10 minutes total.
- Remove from the grill and enjoy!
