This Bengal Barbecue Chicken Skewers recipe from Disneyland won’t disappoint, made with a tangy and sweet Polynesian Sauce.
Located inside Adventureland, Bengal Barbecue has a variety of Polynesian-themed items on the menu, including Banyan Beef Skewers, BBQ Pork Belly Skewers and Safari Skewers (Bacon wrapped asparagus – yum!).
When compared to those amazing sweet and crunchy Disneyland Corn Dogs, these chicken skewers are a relatively healthy option at the park.
Also known as Chieftain Chicken Skewers, these delicious and portable snacks are smothered in a sticky pineapple, soy and brown sugar glaze.
We heard City Hall sometimes gives out recipes from the park, and sure enough they were kind enough to share their Bengal Barbecue Chicken Skewers recipe with us! And these chicken kabobs tasted SO much better made at home!
