Marinade for Chicken Kabobs image

This is a great marinade for kabobs, do not marinade the chicken for more than 5 hours or the lemon juice will start to *cook* the chicken. This recipe may be doubled to 10-12 breasts but prepare two separate marinades in two separate bowls, do not combine the doubled marinade into one bowl. Feel free to thread on you favorite veggies such as mushrooms, cherry tomatoes or whatever you desire! If you prefer a sweeter glaze then increase the honey by a couple tablespoons.

1 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup honey (can use more) or 1/3 cup light corn syrup (can use more)
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 large garlic cloves (sliced into thirds, or use 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional) or 1 pinch cayenne pepper, to taste (optional)
6 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch cubes)

Steps:

  • Place the chicken cubes in the bowl and toss to coat with the marinade.
  • Cover and chill for 4 hours.

  • Thread the chicken onto wooden skewers that have been soaked in cold water for 30 minutes.
  • Place the skewers on a grill and cook for 18-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, basting with cooked marinade during the last 10-12 minutes of cooking.
  • Delicious!
