A NOTE ON CALORIE COUNT, NUTRITIONAL INFO AND SERVING SIZES
Due to my past experiences, I do not include most of the above information within my recipes as it is unsafe for me to do so personally. While I try to share a rough estimate when it comes to the serving size, please note that it is very subjective as we all have different hunger levels both from person to person and even from meal to meal.
If any of the above information is important to you, I understand! We are all different and have various goals and needs. If you’d like, you are welcome to calculate the information needed based on the ingredients you use when making one of my recipes.
I hope you understand! This comes from a place of love and protection both for myself and others like me. If you ever have any questions, send me an Instagram message for the quickest response time! Thank you for being here!

Honey Garlic Chicken & Veggie Skewers
Equipment
- Skewers
- Grill or Grill Pan
Ingredients
Marinade
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tbsp mayo (I use one of my homemade recipes)
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- salt & pepper
Skewers
- 1 lb chicken, cubed
- 1 cup pineapple, cubed
- ¼-½ red onion, cubed
- ½ zucchini, cut into slices then in half
- ½ summer squash, cut into slices then in half
Instructions
- Make the marinade by combining all of your ingredients together.
- Cube your chicken, keeping in mind you'll want the rest of your ingredients to be around the same size. Then, combine the chicken and the marinade and allow to sit in the fridge for 30 minutes and up to overnight.
- Prep your pineapple, red onion, zucchini and summer squash, aiming to keep each piece around the same size as the chicken pieces.
- Once marinated, add the ingredients to a skewer in whatever order you like, grill evenly on all sides until cooked through and enjoy!

That means so much to me! Thank you! 🙂
I made this last night and it was a big hit! A tornado siren went off as soon as I turned my grill on, so we ended up cooking this in a skillet more like a stir fry but it was super delicious! Definitely going to go on the summer time meal rotation!
Ah glad you’re safe and still got to enjoy this recipe! 🙂 You convinced me to add it to the dinner menu this week!
