GRILLED CHICKEN KABOBS WITH VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Prepare marinade. Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl and mix until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Add the cut pieces of chicken, squash, zucchini, bell pepper, and onion to the marinade. Stir gently to coat all of the chicken and vegetables with marinade. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 4-12 hours.
- Preheat grill. Heat the grill to 400 degrees F for direct grilling.
- Assemble the kabobs. While the grill preheats, assemble your kabobs. This process takes about 15 minutes. Skewer on your chicken, squash, zucchini, peppers, and onions onto the kabobs in a pattern. Repeat until all of the chicken and vegetable pieces have been secured on the sticks. Season on all sides with a light sprinkle of additional salt and pepper before grilling, if desired.
- Grill the chicken kabobs. Place the kabobs directly on the grill grates and close the lid. Grill for 4-5 minutes before opening the lid and rotating the skewers. Close the lid and grill for an additional 4-5 minutes. Open, check the temperature of the kabobs, and if the internal temperature of the chicken hasn't reached 165 degrees F, rotate them once again, close the lid, and cook until they hit the target temperature.
- Rest and serve. Remove the finished kabobs from the grill and rest for only 1-2 minutes before serving. The pieces are so small, they don't need to rest much longer than this and you want to serve them hot.

Steps:
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in a dish of warm water for at least 20 minutes.
- Combine the chicken marinade ingredients in a zip-top bag or dish: olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, Italian seasoning and black pepper. Squish to mix in the bag or whisk if using a dish.
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade. Make sure that all of the chicken is coated with the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Place the zucchini rounds and chopped bell peppers in a baking dish or bowl. Drizzle with the 1 ½ tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss gently to coat. Add the onion to the bowl last and mix in very gently so that the onion layers stay together as best as possible.
- Put the chicken and vegetables on the skewers, dividing evenly between the 8 skewers and arranging the vegetable pieces in between the chicken pieces. Aim to put about 3 chicken pieces and 2-3 pieces of each vegetable per skewer. Discard all of the used marinade that held the chicken.
- Grill over medium heat for 12-18 minutes, turning every few minutes to cook all sides evenly. Kabobs are done when chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165° F.

MARINATED CHICKEN KABOBS
This great summer recipe was given to me by a friend years ago. You can put any vegetables you want on the skewers. Don't be worried when you see the light corn syrup in the ingredients, it comes together great! It's a great change. You can even skip the vegetables and just skewer the chicken. Enjoy!

KABOBLESS CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES
As the primary caregiver for my grandma, I am trying to cook healthier for her. I am fascinated with Mediterranean cuisine. It is much easier to have chicken and vegetables off the kabob, which inspired this sheet-pan dinner. -Chelsea Madren, Fullerton, California
