  2. Marinate Chicken: Cut chicken breast into uniform cubes, add to the marinade, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Assemble Skewers: Soak wooden skewers in water, then thread marinated chicken cubes, pineapple slices, and bell pepper pieces onto the skewers.
  4. Preheat Grill: Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 5 minutes, and brush grill grates with vegetable oil.
