Delicious, moist and flavorful. I prefer using homemade pesto, but store-bought will do if necessary. This is sure to become a family favorite! Serve with lemon wedges. This recipe was made in a Panasonic CIO.

Time P1DT26m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup pesto
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
12 cherry tomatoes
12 red onion chunks
6 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Combine chicken pieces, pesto, and lemon juice in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag; seal bag and toss to coat evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
  • Thread chicken, tomatoes, and onion alternately onto skewers. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat Panasonic Countertop Induction Oven to Medium-High on the "Grill" setting.
  • Place the skewers into the grill pan and set the timer for 3 minutes.
  • Turn skewers and cook another 3 to 4 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Allow to rest for about 5 minutes.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could use more seasoning.
