Preparation
- 1
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and marinate evenly in a bowl with a little rapeseed oil and the Aloha Hawaii Rub. Let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or even better, for 2 hours. Peel the mango or pineapple, remove the core, and cut into cubes about the same size as the chicken pieces. Cut the red onions and red bell pepper into similar-sized pieces. Thread the chicken, mango, bell pepper, and onions alternately onto grill skewers.

Wash and dry the mixed salad leaves. For the dressing, whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp lime juice, 1 tsp honey, 1 tsp medium mustard, and salt and pepper. Arrange the salad along with the colorful cherry tomatoes, yellow bell pepper strips, and radishes in a large, shallow bowl or directly on plates as a vibrant base. Drizzle with the dressing just before serving and garnish with pomegranate seeds or mango cubes.

Prepare the grill for medium, direct or indirect heat at around 180°C to 200°C. Sear the skewers directly over the heat on all sides until the mango is lightly caramelized, then move them to the indirect heat zone. Mix the ingredients for the glaze—honey, soy sauce, and lime juice—and brush the skewers lightly with it during the last 5 minutes of cooking so they develop a beautiful shine and a sticky-sweet crust. Place the hot, glossy Aloha Hawaii skewers straight from the grill onto the prepared, colorful salad bouquet.
