Provided by Diana

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1½ pounds chicken breasts (skinless boneless - cubed into 1-inch pieces)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 lime (juiced)
2 tablespoons fajita seasoning
3 bell peppers (red, yellow, and green. Sliced into 1-inch pieces)
1 yellow onion (quartered into 1-inch pieces)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss the chicken with olive oil, lime juice, and fajita seasoning. Check if your fajita seasoning already contains salt, if not, then season with salt. Allow to marinate as you prep the veggies.
  • Core and deseed the bell peppers, cut into 1 inch pieces. Peel and slice the onion into 1 inch pieces. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with dried oregano and salt if desired (optional).
  • Thread the chicken and the vegetables onto skewers, if using bamboo skewers then be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using. Alternate between the vegetables and chicken pieces.
  • Preheat on medium-high heat or 375℉ (190℃). Be sure to clean the grill grates, and oil them before placing the chicken skewers.
  • Place the skewers on your preheated grill, and cook for 6-8 minutes per side. The chicken is ready when its internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C. Pull off the grill and serve with guacamole, and lime crema or sour cream.

  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the canola oil, lime juice and zest, chili powder, cumin, garlic, jalapeno, and salt. Pour over the chicken, seal the bag, the gently “squish” the bag so that the chicken is coated with the marinade. Place the bag in a baking dish to catch any accidental drips, then refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight. If using wooden skewers, soak the skewers in water for at least 20 minutes prior to use.
  • When ready to cook, heat your grill to medium-high. Cut the bell peppers and onion into 3/4-inch chunks, then thread onto skewers with the marinated chicken pieces, alternating the chicken with the vegetables. Lightly oil the grill, then place the kabobs on the grill, cover, and let cook until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink, about 6 to 8 minutes, turning the chicken once or twice throughout so that it cooks evenly.
  • Remove the chicken kebabs to a serving plate and sprinkle with cilantro and a few squeezes of fresh lime juice. Serve warm, garnished with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole as desired.
