Yummy Honey Chicken Kabobs

My man loves meat! He also loves anything cooked on the barbecue and since I just learned how to use the fiery beast this week, I've been trying to perfect my abilities. So, kabobs it is. These were the best chicken kabobs I've ever had. So juicy!
 
YUMMY HONEY CHICKEN KABOBS:
Serves: 4 people
 
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup of honey
1/3 cup of soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon of pepper (I usually add more)
4 chicken breast, cut into 1 inch cubed
2 cloves of garlic
1 large sweet white onion, cut into 2 inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, cut into 2 inch pieces
1/2 cup of assorted cherry tomatoes (I used red, golden and black from the garden)


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 (I forgot to do this and they were still awesome, flavorful and juicy). Place the chicken, garlic, onions and peppers in the bowl or plastic bag if you don't enjoy dishes, 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 and vegetables alternately onto the skewers. If you are using wood skewers soak them in water first so that they won't burn on the barbecue.


 
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.
