HONEY CHICKEN KABOBS

I am so behind. There have been so many days that I have made things and I have not put them up. Hopefully I'll be able to remember them.

Last night's dinner was kabobs. B was so excited when I put these on the menu for the week and actually requested them for two weeks in a row. (Not this specific recipe, so I might go ahead and try another one.) My original recipe was for steak kabobs, and I had chicken, so I was forced to look up a different one the day of. Not what I like to do. But I found this one.


1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup honey
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic, sliced in large chunks
chicken, cut into 1 inch pieces
veggies, cut up

Whisk the oil, soy sauce, honey, and black pepper together. Add garlic. Add chicken and veggies to the bowl, and place in the fridge. Let this marinate for at least two hours (Mine was in there for 3). When ready, drain marinade and load skewers with chicken and veggies. Cook on grill (direct heat) until the chicken is done.

There are a billion ways to make kabobs and have all the right tricks of the trade. I don't really have the time to go into all that right now, so I might come back and update this post later. Hopefully.


This is not my favorite. Also, the recipe as it is is only enough for the chicken by itself. I ended up doubling it, and I probably should have tripled it. And B, when he was grilling them, didn't pay attention and burned most of them to a crisp. So maybe we might give it another try, since it ended up dry and overcooked, but that was our fault. We'll see what happens.
