  MARINADE-Add all ingredients except the chicken to a non-aluminum
  mixing bowl and mix thoroughly until the sugar and salt are
  completely dissolved. Pound the chicken breast between sheets of
  waxed peper until an even thickness of 3/16" overall. Cut the chicken
  breast meat into 1" squares and add to the marinade, covering
  completely. Allow to marinate for 2 hours, refrigerated. Remove from
  the marinade after 2 hours and drain.

  SPIEDIES-Assemble in the following order: red bell pepper, onion,
  chicken (folded into "C" shape on the skewer), green bell pepper,
  onion, chicken, alternately, finishing with a red pepper strip after
  the 4th piece of chicken on each skewer. Spread the skewered items
  out on each skewer, so they will cook quickly. Place the Spiedies on
  a grill or a griddle and cook approximately 1 minute per side,
  turning 4 times. Adjust the timing according to your equipment's heat
  output. Serve immediately, 4 per quest, with dipping sauce, about 1/4
  c per serving.

  SAUCE-Mix all ingredients together just until blended. Chill 1 to 2
  hours to blend flavors. Serve cold. Source: The Olive Garden.
