    I served the sweet and sour chicken skewers at a dinner party last week and they were a huge hit.The thighs were so much more flavorful and juicy than breasts would have been. Very easy to prepare and grill. Everything was prepared in advance so I could enjoy my guests. I met eveyone at the door with Sandra's Hula Girl cocktail and served the skewers with homemade coconut rice. For dessert we enjoyed Sandra's Pineapple Pound cake. What a great success. Thanks Sandra!

    I made this recipe for my VERY PICKY family and they enjoyed it. I used breasts instead of thighs and added red onion to the skewers for more color. Cooked them on a charcoal grill. To the sauce, I added red pepper flakes, 5 spice & a pinch of salt for more flavor. It was really awesome. I will definitely make this recipe a part of my repertoire.

    This was a good quick dinner. I used breasts instead of thighs (on sale and added vidalia onion to the skewers as well. I prepped the night before and let them marinate. Then after work put them on the grill for a super quick week night dinner. I put the remaining sauce over the skewers before serving. They were perfect served with homemade coconut brown rice.

    I made these chicken skewers last night for my family. I used chicken breasts (they were on sale instead of thighs and I added a few pieces of red onion to each skewer. They are delicious and light. I didn't use the sauce as a dipping sauce. Instead, I put the remaining sauce on the skewers before I served them. Yummy! Served them with brown rice and a salad. Very good and easy.

    I made this tonight for my family and everyone loved it. The meal came together very quickly and tasted great. I will certainly be added to our favorites to make on a regular basis.

    Made these for my husband and we were in love with them. The sauce was very easy to make and it gave me other ideas to use it with. Just to be able to make other Asian dishes and not have to get take out!! That's another money saving deal we got out of this one!!!

    This was delicious! My husband and I had a jar of sweet and sour sauce laying around, so we used that instead. We also made these on a non-stick pan (we had to cut the skewers a little to fit instead of using the grill and it was still good. Next time, we're definitely making rice or couscous to go with it.

    I made these yesterday. I was surprised that my family liked them. I had green pepper on hand that needed to be used, so I used green. I cooked inside as I usually do the first time I try something. I had a hard time getting the chicken to cook. I will definetly try this outside on the grill.

    This is a standard "kababob" recipie. I agree with Sandra, go with the Red Pepers (or orange or yellow as opposed to the younger Green peper. Much better flavor. The Pinaple Gaze isn't new, but it's delicious.

    One tip: When cleaning your Red Pepper, don't throw a quarter of it away as Sandra did in her presentation. That top she tossed is fine and a quick snack if you aren't going to use in in the skewers.

    My Second Tip: Anytime you buy Boneless Chicken you are paying to much. A package of chicken thighs would have been much cheaper and it only takes seconds to de-bone (It only has one bone a chicken thigh. We aren't talking about a whole chicken here...

    I've made these and similar skewer/kababobs inside on the grill and outside on the charcoal. I prefer the charcoal, gives it a better and smokey flavor. Happy eating!
