Description

Make simple and flavorful grilled chicken and vegetable kebabs perfect for a summer meal. Marinated chicken and fresh vegetables cook quickly on the grill.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large zucchini, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Wooden or metal skewers


Instructions

  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add the chicken cubes and vegetables to the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat everything evenly.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and different vegetables.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  6. Lightly oil the grill grates.
  7. Place the skewers on the preheated grill.
  8. Grill for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
  9. Remove from the grill and serve hot.

Notes

  • You can use any vegetables you like for these kebabs. Cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, and yellow squash work well.
  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
  • If you don’t have a grill, you can cook these kebabs under your broiler. Place them on a baking sheet and broil for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through.
