Total time
Recipe type: Main Course
Cuisine: Mediterranean
Serves: Approximately 12 Kabobs
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, chopped into 1" pieces
- 1 lb heirloom cherry tomatoes (regular cherry tomatoes work, too)
- ½ large red onion, chopped into 1" pieces
- 1 large green pepper, chopped into 1" pieces
- 2 tbsp EVOO
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- approximately 12 kabob skewers
Instructions
- Up to 24 hours before, place chicken, tomatoes, red onion cubes, and green pepper cubes in a large zip locked bag. Pour in the EVOO, red wine vinegar, honey, cumin, salt, and pepper. Let marinate in refrigerator over night.
- About 2 hours before cooking, soak kabob skewers in water. This keeps them moist and less likely to catch on fire.
- When ready, preheat oven to 400 degrees F and skewer your kabobs by interspersing vegetables and chicken pieces.
- Once complete, bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve with basmati rice.
