Asian Ginger Chicken and Vegetables Kabobs

Asian Ginger Chicken and Vegetables Kabobs

Grilled chicken and vegetables taste so yummy!  You can customize these using your favorite vegetables although I think this combination is perfection.

Ingredients:

Kabobs-

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast cut into cubes

1 red bell pepper cut into 1-2 inch strips

1 yellow bell pepper cut into 1-2 inch strips

1 red onion cut into wedges

1 yellow squash cut into ¼ inch slices

1 zucchini cut into ¼ inch slices

1 8 ounce package whole mushrooms

Skewers

Marinade-

¼ cup honey

1/3 cup Asian Ginger Plum Dressing (I used Wildtree, but any similar dressing will work)

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 garlic clove

2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Directions:

  1. Mix all ingredients for the marinade. 
  2. Add chopped chicken and vegetables to a large bag or 9×13 pan. 
  3. Pour marinade over chicken and vegetables. 
  4. Let marinade soak in for 4 hours or overnight.  (I prep this as a freezer meal and thaw 48 hours prior to cooking).
  5. Skewer the meat and vegetables.  I usually do 1-2 skewers with chicken and fill the rest with the veggies.  After cooking I transfer everything to a clean 9×13 dish and let my family help themselves.
  6. Grill for 5-7 minutes per side until chicken and vegetables are cooked through and slightly charred on all sides.
