Marinated Chicken Shish Kebobs

Even thoughI live in a ‘cold climate’ state, we still like to grill out as often as possible. We don’t let the elements stop us. Marinated Chicken Shish Kebobs are perfect for grilling anytime. Great way to use a small amount of vegetables, fruit and meat.

Snow or Shine

Here in Wisconsin, we grill out regardless of how cold it is outside or whether or not it’s snowing outside. We put on our warm winter coats, our faux fur lined boots, warm hat, thick gloves and we brave the elements, just so we can bite into a thick juicy burger or a beer soaked bratwurst. Snow or Shine we fire up our grills.

Each Autumn

Each autumn, we lift our grills off the back deck, lug our grills through the back-yard, along the side of our homes, into our front yards and proceed to make a special spot in our garage for our grills. We usually put them next to our snow blowers or shovels, so we have easy access to them both for the long, cold winter ahead. My hubby even has a special folding lawn chair (the old-fashioned webbed kind) that he affectionately calls his grillin’ chair. He hangs his grillin’ chair on a hook near the grill, just in case he wants to sit and take a break from snow shoveling or if he wants to sit and drink his beer while he burns the brats on the grill. Each spring, we do the same thing…but only in reverse.

Good Way to Eat Veggies

Recently my hubby and I have taken to grilling out shish kebobs. What I like most about kebobs is you can use any type of meat or shellfish plus any kind of fruits, vegetables or both. A quick, simple marinade or one of the many wonderful bottled marinades on the market today, is all that is necessary to flavor the meat and vegetables. Two pounds of boneless meat or fish is plenty of to make 12 kebobs. A combination of whole mushrooms, small baby potatoes, cherry tomatoes, pearl onions, green pepper pieces, pineapple chunks or anything else you can think of and you have the makings of a delicious dinner, add some jasmine rice and white wine, perfecto!

Try Something New

This winter, when you’re looking for something different to throw on the grill or if you have some vegetables that have been hanging around to long in your crisper and you have a few boneless, skinless chicken breasts you need to use up, give this recipe a try.
