For the kabobs

Instructions

Step 1 
Combine all the ingredients for the rub. Use 2 tablespoons of rub to season the chicken. Cover and place in the refrigerator. Store leftover rub in an airtight container. Use to season other chicken, pork, or beef dishes.

Step 2
Prepare the glaze. In a medium saucepan, melt butter. Add garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes, or until golden and soft. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until well combined. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer over medium heat until the mixture thickens. About 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. 


Step 3
Lightly oil the grate of your outdoor grill and preheat to high heat. 

Step 4
Thread the chicken, pineapple, and vegetables alternately onto 10-inch bamboo skewers.
 
Step 5
Grill until golden brown and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F. About 2-3 minutes per side per kabob. Baste with glaze as you grill. 
 
Step 6 
Remove from grill and brush with additional glaze. Serve immediately.
