Grilled Peach & Chicken Skewers

Back

Ingredients:

Marinade

⅓ cup olive oil
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp honey
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp dried thyme
½ tsp dried oregano
Pinch red pepper flakes

Skewers

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
2 firm white peaches, cut into wedges
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red onion, cut into chunks
Wooden or metal skewers

Glaze

2 tbsp. peach preserves
1 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. lemon juice, fresh

Steps:

Marinate

Whisk together all of the marinade ingredients until well combined.

Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and toss in the marinade until evenly coated.

Cover and refrigerate for 1–6 hours.

Assemble

Thread the ingredients onto skewers, alternating chicken, red onion, green bell pepper, white peach, and red bell pepper. Repeat until the skewers are full.

Grill

Preheat the grill to 400°F.

Grill the skewers for 12–15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the peaches are lightly caramelized.

Glaze

In a small saucepan, warm the peach preserves, honey, and lemon juice until smooth.

Brush the glaze over the skewers during the last few minutes of grilling, then add one final brush of glaze just before serving.
