Whether you're throwing a backyard barbecue party or looking for a quick weekend dinner, these kabobs are just perfect.

Let's start by making the Honey BBQ Sauce. In a bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Stir well until all the ingredients are well incorporated. Set this aside for later.
Next, let's prepare the chicken and vegetables. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Thread the chicken, bell peppers, and onions onto the skewers, alternating between each ingredient. Make sure to leave a small space between each piece to ensure even cooking.
Now, it's time to grill. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the kabobs for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender. While grilling, brush the kabobs generously with the honey BBQ sauce, turning and basting them frequently. You'll know when they're done when the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the vegetables have a nice char to them.
For a complete meal, serve these Honey BBQ Chicken Kabobs with a side of coleslaw or grilled corn on the cob. And if you have any leftover honey BBQ sauce, it makes a great dipping sauce. Remember, you can also use this recipe with other proteins like beef or shrimp. If youre using wooden skewers, dont forget to soak them in water for about 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning.
Preparing and enjoying these Honey BBQ Chicken Kabobs is truly a joy. Each bite brings a burst of flavors thats both comforting and exciting.
