How to make chicken kabobs?
1. Cut the chicken. Slice the chicken breast into 2-inch pieces. Make sure the chicken pieces are the same size to ensure even cooking.
2. Marinate the chicken. Combine the chicken with 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 3 grated garlic cloves, 1 tbsp grated onion, 2 tbsp white wine, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
3. Cut the vegetables. Cut the bell pepper and red onion into large chunks, about the same size as the chicken.
4. Season the vegetables. Toss the bell pepper and onion pieces with 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, and 3 tbsp olive oil.
5. Skewer and grill. Place the marinated chicken and chopped vegetables on skewers. Grill over medium-high heat for about 10-15 minutes, turning once halfway through (internal temperature should be 165ºF). Grilling time may vary depending on the size of your chicken and the type of grill.
How to cut the chicken breast?
For the best Grilled Chicken Kabobs, slice the chicken into even 2-inch pieces. It’s important that the pieces aren’t too large, making it difficult for them cook through, and not too small, making them hard to skewer and cook too fast (which leads to dryness). Make sure the pieces are even and about the same size as the vegetables because this will give a more balanced flavor with each bite, and also ensure that one thing doesn’t cook much faster than another.
How to grill the kabobs?
Here are a few tips for the best way to grill these chicken kabobs:
- Cook them directly over medium-high heat
- Keep the grill lid closed to help with even cooking
- The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit before they are taken off the grill
Soak wooden skewers
To avoid your skewers from burning, soak them for 10-30 minutes in water before you spear the chicken and vegetables for your kabobs. This will keep them moist enough to withstand the heat of the grill during cooking.
