Honey Chicken Kabobs


                                        This recipe is so easy and yummy! You can just put the skewer through the  chicken tender and cook it that way if you desire.
                           Or you can cut it into nugget size and cook it that way with veggies on a seperate skewer.  There just something  about cooking food on the grill that just makes it taste so much better! I cook on the grill a lot during the spring in to the fall. So I hope to be posting more grilled recipes as the days go on and I go through all the recipes I have collected over the years.

Happy Grilling ü


Ingredients

1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
8 skinless, boneless chicken breast
halves - cut into 1 inch cubes
2 cloves garlic
5 small onions, cut into 2 inch pieces
2 red bell peppers, cut into 2 inch pieces
skewers

Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together oil, honey, soy sauce, and pepper. Before adding chicken, reserve a small amount of marinade to brush onto kabobs while cooking. Place the chicken, garlic, onions and peppers in the bowl, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours (the longer the better). Preheat the grill for high heat. Drain marinade from the chicken and vegetables, and discard marinade. Thread chicken and vegetables alternately onto the skewers. Lightly oil the grill grate. Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until chicken juices run clear. Turn and brush with reserved marinade frequently.
