Tender and moist, these grilled kabobs from Sheri Jean Waked are extra special when served with her garlic dipping sauce. "This is a lighter version of a dish my Lebanese mother-in-law taught me to make," she writes from Loveland, Ohio. "I reduced the amount of oil and substituted yogurt for mayonnaise."

LEMON CHICKEN KABOBS



Lemon Chicken Kabobs image

From Canadian Living's The Barbecue Collection cookbook, I am saving this here because it is so simple and so tasty. I used a bit more garlic than called for, marinated the chicken for about 6 hours and used sweet green peppers. Delicious! Left-overs are great served hot or cold, on a salad or on their own. Please note: Minimum marinating time is included in prep time.

Time 42m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 sweet green peppers or 2 banana peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Mix together oil, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper; toss with chicken until coated. Marinate refrigerated for 15 minutes or up to one day.
  • Thread chicken and pepper onto skewers.
  • Grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until chicken is browned and no longer pink inside, about 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken kabobs are cooked evenly, cut the chicken breasts into uniform pieces.
  • Use wooden skewers for grilling the kabobs. Soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning.
  • Marinate the chicken in the lemon-garlic sauce for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the chicken.
  • Grill the kabobs over medium heat for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
  • Serve the kabobs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tzatziki sauce or lemon wedges.

Conclusion:

This lemon garlic chicken kabobs recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy grilled chicken. The combination of lemon, garlic, and herbs creates a flavorful marinade that infuses the chicken with incredible taste. Whether you're grilling for a party or just a weeknight dinner, these kabobs are sure to be a hit. So fire up the grill and get cooking!
