Greek Chicken Kabobs

 

    This recipe needs to have a disclaimer! ** MAKE SURE YOU MARINATE FOR LONGER THAN 15 MINS ** 

Made this in a hurry and I think it will need to be tried again with a few changes and that will include having it actually marinate! haha

 

 I also added fresh thyme after making the skewers and cracked black pepper with a few pinches of salt. 

My side is wheat cous cous with garlic herbs, feta and cherry tomatoes. 

Ingredients
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leave or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 red bell pepper, cut into 2 inch pieces
1 green bell pepper, cut into 2 inch pieces
1 large sweet onion, peeled and cut into wedges
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves – cut into cubes

Directions
1. In a small bowl, mix together all the marinade ingredients.
2. In a large resealable plastic bag, place the marinade, red and green bell peppers, onion wedges and chicken. Seal, and mix to coat. Refrigerate 4 to 24 hours.
3. When ready to cook, preheat grill for medium-high heat.
4. Discard marinade, and thread the meat and vegetables onto skewers, leaving a small space between each item.
5. Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill skewers for 10 minutes, turning as needed, or until meat is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
