Grilled Chicken and Veggie Kabobs

Chicken and veggie skewers are a classic summer option for lunch or dinner. This recipe includes a sweet and savory honey-garlic marinade and a variety of colorful, fresh vegetables. Serve them over rice or greens for a complete meal.

The marinade is the most important and flavorful part of this recipe. Whisk together the ingredients for the marinade. Soak the chicken and veggies for at least one hour (or up to 8 hours). When you’re ready, thread the marinated chicken and veggies onto your skewers. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side and you have a mouthwatering dish!

Kabobs are very versatile and can be cooked on an outdoor or indoor grill or broiled in the oven. Be sure to soak your wood skewers in cold water for at least 20 minutes to keep them from burning.
