Balsamic-Mustard Chicken Kebabs Recipe is Full of Rich Flavor
These savory skewers cook up in just 15 minutes and are delicious anytime of year
I like to grill all year, no matter what the weather. Grilling gives food a deep, rich flavor with a hint of delicious smokiness that no other cooking method can come close to. Plus, eating food hot off the grill immediately transports me to summertime, and I’m all for that! This balsamic-mustard chicken kebabs recipe is the perfect grilled dish. It’s full of fabulous flavor whether you’re eating it in December or August. And it’s ready after just 15 minutes on the grill.
For this yummy dinner we marinate skewers of chicken, green and yellow squash and red pepper in a zingy marinade made with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and mustard. Marinating it overnight really lets the food absorb the tangy flavor. Then we grill the skewers and brush them with extra marinade. Serve them with a baked potato or rice and a chopped salad and you’ve got yourself a delicious, nutritious meal. Watch our video to see how easy this recipe is to make and give it a try.
