Begin by cutting 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes. In a mixing bowl, combine 1/4 cup of maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of Sriracha, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder to create the marinade.
Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated, and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the pineapple salsa by dicing 1 cup of fresh pineapple, 1/4 cup of red onion, and 1/4 cup of cilantro.
In a separate bowl, mix the diced pineapple, red onion, cilantro, the juice of 1 lime, and a pinch of salt.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
Grill the chicken skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
Serve the skewers hot, topped with the fresh pineapple salsa for a burst of flavor and color.
