breast meat into 1" squares and add to the marinade,
covering completely. Allow to marinate for 2 hours,
refrigerated. Remove from the marinade after 2 hours
and drain. SPIEDIES-Assemble in the following order:
red bell pepper, onion, chicken (folded into "C" shape
on the skewer), green
bell pepper, onion, chicken, alternately, finishing
with a red pepper strip after the 4th piece of chicken

turning 4 times. Adjust the
timing according to your equipment's heat output.
Serve immediately, 4 per quest, with dipping sauce,
about 1/4 c per serving. SAUCE-Mix all ingredients
