- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup diced fresh pineapple
- 1/4 cup chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions
- Prepare the marinade by whisking together honey, lime juice, lime zest, olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Cut the chicken thighs into even pieces and add them to the marinade, ensuring they're fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, taking care to leave a bit of space between pieces.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The salsa is best served fresh, but can also be stored for up to 2 days for an easy snack.
