Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes (if using)
- For the Marinade:
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon Frontier Co-op Smoked Paprika
1 teaspoon Frontier Co-op Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Frontier Co-op Cumin Powder
1/2 teaspoon Frontier Co-op Chili Powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon Frontier Co-op Black Pepper
Directions
- Prepare Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients.
- Marinate Chicken: Add chicken cubes to the marinade, toss to coat thoroughly, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- Assemble Skewers: Thread chicken and vegetables alternately onto the soaked wooden skewers.
- Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
- Cook Skewers: Place skewers on the hot grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender-crisp with nice grill marks.
- Serve: Serve hot, perhaps with a side of quinoa or rice.
