Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds chicken breasts
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- 1 red onion
- 2 small zucchini
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 skewers
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Wash and chop the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini into 1-inch pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 8 hours for more flavor).
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of bell peppers, onion, and zucchini, until all ingredients are used.
Place the kabobs onto the preheated grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F) and the vegetables are slightly charred.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite side dish, such as rice or a fresh salad.
