Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 piece red bell pepper
- 1 piece yellow bell pepper
- 1 piece zucchini
- 1 piece red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes, about 1-inch in size, and set aside.
Dice the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into 1-inch pieces to match the chicken cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well mixed.
Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). If using a grill pan indoors, heat it over medium-high heat and brush lightly with oil.
Assemble the kabobs by threading the marinated chicken and diced vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between the chicken and the vegetables for an even distribution.
Place the kabobs on the preheated grill. Cook for 12-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes to ensure even cooking and grill marks. The chicken should be fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the kabobs with a side of your choice, such as rice, salad, or garlic bread, and enjoy!
