In a large bowl, whisk together oil, honey, soy sauce, and pepper. Before adding chicken, reserve a small amount of marinade to brush onto kabobs while cooking. Place the chicken, garlic, onions and peppers in the bowl, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours (the longer the better). 

Preheat the grill for high heat.

Drain marinade from the chicken and vegetables, and discard marinade. Thread chicken,vegetables, pineapple, alternately onto the skewers.

Lightly oil the grill grate. Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until chicken juices run clear. Turn and brush with reserved marinade frequently.(12 servings)

*** Preparing Bamboo Skewers

Bamboo skewers must be soaked in water prior to using.

1. Put a few inches of water in a shallow bowl or pan.
2. Put the bamboo skewers into the water, making sure they all go under the water.
3. Leave the skewers in the water for at least 20 minutes.
4. Take the skewers out of the water and put your food onto them, ready to go on the grill.
