Summer to me means grilling! The first thing that comes to mind is skewers because they are simple and work great to make ahead to take to work. I used a mediterranean seasoning on these that includes chili, oregano, rosemary and thyme which makes this so so delicious and fresh. This makes about 8 skewers so a serving size is about 2 skewers a piece.
Ingredients
- 3 medium breast (yield after cooking, bone and skin removed) chicken breast
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ tsp, leaves spices thyme dried
- ¼ tsp, leaves spices oregano dried
- ¼ tablespoon spices rosemary dried
- ¼ teaspoon spices coriander seed
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ large head (6-7 in. dia) cauliflower
- 1 medium (approx 2-3/4 in. long, 2-1/2 in. dia) green bell pepper
- 1 medium zucchini
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Soak skewers in water overnight to prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Dice chicken into 1’ cubes. Place in a large mixing bowl and combine with all the dried spices including the black pepper and ½ t salt.
- Cut the cauliflower into florets, the green bell pepper into 1” pieces and cut the zucchini in half and then into half moon shapes. Toss all the veggies in 2 T olive oil and ½ t salt.
- Start skewering by alternating chicken, zucchini, bell pepper, cauliflower. I would also double up on chicken once in awhile if the pieces were on the smaller side.
- Preheat a grill until it’s very hot. Place skewers on the grill and cook on each side for several minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies have a nice char on them about 12-15 minutes. Serve hot!
