Yangtze Chicken Skewers are a popular appetizer in Chinese cuisine, but they also make for a great main dish. The chicken is marinated in a tangy orange sauce, which makes it juicy and flavorful. The addition of fresh pineapple adds a pop of sweetness and color to the dish. These skewers are perfect for a summer BBQ or a fun dinner party with friends. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by everyone, no matter their dietary restrictions.

Instructions

1.	In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, ketchup, white wine, orange marmalade, and honey.
2.	Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size pieces and place them in a separate bowl. Pour half the sauce over the chicken and stir to coat. Allow the chicken to marinate in the remaining sauce for at least 30 minutes.
3.	Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
4.	Thread the chicken and pineapple onto skewers, alternating between the two.
5.	Grill the skewers for 5-7 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through.
6.	Serve the skewers with the remaining sauce for dipping.
