Description
These grilled BBQ chicken skewers are perfect for summer BBQs! Juicy chicken marinated in a tangy BBQ sauce, skewered with colorful veggies, and grilled to perfection.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup BBQ sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine chicken cubes and BBQ sauce. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated chicken, bell pepper, onion, and zucchini onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and veggies.
- Brush the skewers with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
- Serve hot with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
Notes
- Feel free to add your favorite vegetables to the skewers, such as cherry tomatoes or mushrooms.
- For extra flavor, you can sprinkle some garlic powder or smoked paprika on the chicken before grilling.
