Chili Chicken Kabobs

Ingredients

  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1 fresh large lime juice or 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½-1 tsp cayenne pepper optional... of course, with more comes more spiciness!
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 2 large chicken breast cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 2-3 medium zucchini or yellow summer squash cut into 1 inch slices and then sliced in half
  • 1 large sweet onion chopped into thick pieces
  • 2 large red bell peppers chopped into thick pieces

Instructions

  • Pre-heat grill to medium heat.
  • In a small bowl whisk olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Place chicken pieces in a shallow baking dish. Pour mixture over chicken. Stir to coat chicken well and refrigerate. Allow pieces to marinate at least 30 minutes. For best results, marinate overnight.
  • Alternate one piece of chicken, onion, bell pepper, and zucchini while threading onto skewers. Pour the remaining marinade over the entire skewer.
  • Grill for 8 to 10 minutes (about 2 minutes on each side) or until chicken no longer pink.
