Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 piece red bell pepper
- 1 piece yellow bell pepper
- 2 pieces zucchini
- 1 piece red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces wooden skewers or metal skewers
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Prepare the vegetables by cutting the red and yellow bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion into similar 1-inch pieces.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, stir to coat thoroughly, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F) or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat on the stove.
Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion pieces onto the skewers, alternating between them to create a colorful arrangement.
Lightly oil the grill grates or grill pan to prevent sticking.
Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.
Serve the kabobs with your favorite side dishes like rice, pita bread, or a fresh salad.
