Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2 large breasts)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried thyme or dried rosemary
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 small red onion (quartered into 1-inch pieces)
1 small zucchini (ends trimmed and sliced into 1/2-inch coins)
1 small summer squash (ends trimmed and sliced into 1/2-inch coins)
1 red bell pepper (seeded and cut into 1-inch pieces)
Canola oil (for grilling)
1 large lemon (cut into wedges (optional but way better if it's included))
Chopped fresh herbs of choice (parsley and dill are two of our favorites)
Crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces and place in a large ziptop bag, shallow baking dish, or bowl.
  • In a separate bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour over the chicken and stir to coat (or seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and "squish" to coat). Place in the refrigerator to marinate for 30 minutes or up to 3 hours (do not let the chicken sit for longer or the vinegar will cause it to break down). If using wooden skewers, place the skewers in water to soak for at least 20 minutes.
  • When ready to grill, preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 375 degrees F). Brush the grill grates with canola oil or coat with nonstick grill spray.
  • Thread the kabobs: Thread a piece of chicken onto the skewer (shake off the excess marinade when removing it from the bag. Add alternating pieces of the red onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and red bell pepper until you've reached the end of the skewer, ending with chicken. Repeat with the remaining skewers, then discard the excess chicken marinade.
  • Grill the chicken until fully cooked through and the juices run clear, about 10 to 15 minutes, turning the skewers every few minutes so that each side has grill marks. Transfer to a serving plate and squeeze the lemon over the top. Sprinkle with fresh herbs and feta. Serve warm.

GRILLED MARGARITA CHICKEN



Grilled Margarita Chicken image

This marinade has all the ingredients of a margarita! Marinate the chicken breasts for an hour (not much longer, or the lime juice will start to cook the chicken) and then grill over medium-hot coals. Servings are based on the number of chicken pieces. If you have hearty eaters, this will not serve 8! Delicious!

MARINADE FOR CHICKEN KABOBS



Marinade for Chicken Kabobs image

This is a great marinade for kabobs, do not marinade the chicken for more than 5 hours or the lemon juice will start to *cook* the chicken. This recipe may be doubled to 10-12 breasts but prepare two separate marinades in two separate bowls, do not combine the doubled marinade into one bowl. Feel free to thread on you favorite veggies such as mushrooms, cherry tomatoes or whatever you desire! If you prefer a sweeter glaze then increase the honey by a couple tablespoons.
