Instructions
Making Spicy Grilled Chicken Kabobs is straightforward when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes for flavor infusion.
3. Preheat the Grill: While the chicken is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4. Prepare the Skewers: After marinating, thread the chicken cubes onto the skewers alternately with the bell pepper and onion chunks.
5. Grill the Kabobs: Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety.
7. Rest the Kabobs: Once cooked, remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
