Honey Garlic Chicken Kabobs
This 5-ingredient marinade for chicken kabobs is sweet, savory, and incredibly easy! Just marinate cut-up chicken and veggies, thread them on skewers, and grill in minutes.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup avocado oil or olive oil
- 1/3 cup soy sauce (Gluten-free option: Use coconut aminos or gluten-free Tamari soy sauce.)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 2-3 bell peppers (seeded and cut into bite-sized pieces; any color)
- 1 red onion (cut into bite-sized chunks)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl or shallow casserole dish, whisk together the oil, soy sauce, honey, black pepper, and garlic.
- Add the chicken and veggies to the marinade, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
- Preheat grill to medium heat (around 350-400°F). Be sure to clean the grates well before grilling.
- Thread the veggies and chicken on skewers and discard the remaining marinade.
- Grill for 12-15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through (at least 165°F or no longer pink inside). Do not overcook the chicken.
Freezer Instructions
Freeze For Later: To a gallon-sized freezer bag or container, add all the ingredients except the peppers and onions. Seal and toss gently to combine. Freeze.
Prepare From Frozen: Note: You will need the chopped peppers and onions on hand to complete this meal. Thaw completely. Add the fresh chopped peppers and onions to the bag and toss in the marinade. Follow Steps 3-5.
Notes/Tips
- Save the inside of the onion, if the pieces are too small for the kabob, and throw in a soup, sauce, or marinade later.
- Mix up the veggies if you want! Red onion and bell peppers are my veggies of choice. Mushrooms would also be great with this recipe.
- While the chicken marinates, place your kabob sticks in some water so they don’t get obliterated on the grill.
