Tropical Chipotle Chicken Skewers

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup low-sodium ketchup

  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice

  • 3 chipotle chilies in adobo sauce

  • 2 tsp minced garlic

  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes

  • 32 (about 1 cup) olives, whole, pitted

  • 1 cup cubed pineapple (1-inch)

  • 8 (12-inch) wooden skewers, soaked in warm water

Sweet pineapple contrasts with savory chicken in this mouth-watering dish.

Directions
