Preparation
Put all the marinade ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Add the chicken pieces and mix well, then cover and refrigerate for a few hours to overnight. Mix in the pineapple 30 minutes before assembling the kebabs. If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water at the same time.
Thread 2-3 pieces each of chicken and pineapple onto each of 6 small skewers. Preheat the grill to the highest heat, then grill the kebabs for 14-15 minutes, turning halfway. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving with salad, naan, and yogurt and mint sauce.
Sauce
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes before stirring again and serving.
