In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

Add chicken cubes to the marinade and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor.

Thread the marinated chicken, pineapple chunks, bell peppers, and onion onto skewers, alternating the ingredients.

Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
