Description
Juicy Mediterranean-style chicken kabobs marinated in a bright lemon herb dressing and grilled with colorful vegetables.
Ingredients
- 6 long Bamboo skewers (or metal skewers)
- 1 lb Boneless skinless chicken breast (cut into 1.5 inch pieces)
- 2 large Bell peppers (cut into 1.5 inch pieces)
- 2 medium Zucchini (sliced into 1/2 inch rounds)
- 1 large Red onion (cut into 1.5 inch pieces)
- 1/2 cup Olive oil
- 1/2 cup Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp Fresh dill (chopped)
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tbsp Sea salt
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
- If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30–60 minutes to prevent burning.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, dill, parsley, sea salt, and black pepper.
- Thread chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces.
- Place skewers in a dish and pour marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Grill kabobs for 5–8 minutes per side with the lid closed, until chicken is fully cooked.
Notes
- You can substitute chicken thighs for juicier kabobs.
- Serve with rice, pita, or a fresh salad.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Metal skewers do not require soaking.
