Easy Grilled Chicken Kabobs

 It’s still September and warm enough for grilled chicken kabobs! We modified a recipe for an easy, flavorful main dish. Use fresh, in-season peppers, add onion or your garden zucchini or squash. Serves 2 to 4.  

Easy Ingredients 

  • 1 tablespoons honey 

  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice 

  • 1 clove fresh garlic, crushed & chopped 

  • 1 small shallot clove sliced thin 

  • 1/2 each teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper and sea salt 

Simple Directions 

1. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, herb seasoning, honey,     

    juice, garlic, shallot, sea salt and pepper, whisk to thoroughly mix.  

2. Add chicken to bowl, turn to completely coat, cover, refrigerate for 2 hours. 

3. Cut peppers into 1-1/2" chunks and cut onions into 2" chunks set aside. 

4. Soak bamboo skewers in cold water. 

5. Preheat grill to 160°F. 

6. Drain the chicken, reserving marinade. 

7. Thread chicken and veggie chunks onto skewers, do not overload skewers,  

    leave 2 inches bare on end to turn skewers 

8. Lightly brush marinade on skewers, discard remaining marinade. 

9. Place skewers on hot grill, cook 10-12 minutes, turn every 3-5 minutes, until veggies are tender, and chicken

is thoroughly cooked @ 37F. Test the temperature with a food thermometer, 

10. Remove from grill, let rest for 5 minutes, serve & enjoy. 

 

Helpful Hints 

  • Marinate the chicken for 2, maximum 3 hours, long enough for the meat to absorb flavors without becoming too soft. The lemon & vinegar acids break down proteins which can cause it to become mushy if left too long to marinated. 

  • Add brown rice for a healthy next day lunch or dinner. 

  • Cover and refrigerate for two days.
