LEMON CHICKEN KABOBS
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.

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 remains juicy and tender, select boneless, skinless chicken breasts for the kebabs.
- Use wooden skewers instead of metal ones, as metal can conduct heat and cause the chicken to overcook.
- Soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using them to prevent them from burning.
- Marinate the chicken in the lemon-garlic mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, for maximum flavor.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the kebabs in a grill pan or on a baking sheet in the oven.
- Serve the kebabs with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or pita bread.
Conclusion:
Lemon-Garlic Chicken Kebabs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight meal. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful blend of lemon, garlic, and herbs, then grilled to perfection. Serve the kebabs with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or pita bread, and enjoy a tasty and satisfying meal.
