You can also use salt and pepper if you don’t have a favorite rub! Make up ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to put on the grill!Barbecue Maple Chicken Kebabs have a caramelized sweetness (from the maple syrup) that takes your chicken kebabs recipe to the next level.
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. maple syrup
- 2 Tbsp. maple seasoning, I use McCormick’s Grill Mates® Smokehouse Maple Seasoning
- 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- Green onions, optional for garnish
Instructions
- Mix oil, maple syrup, and seasoning in a small bowl. Place chicken in large Ziploc plastic bag or glass dish. Add marinade; turn to coat well and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- Remove chicken from marinade; discard any remaining marinade. Alternately thread chicken cubes and vegetables onto skewers.
- Lightly sprinkle chicken and vegetables with additional Smokehouse Maple Seasoning, if desired.
- Grill over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, turning frequently.
Notes
TIP: Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. This will keep them from burning on the grill.
