Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
  • 2 bell peppers, chopped into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 zucchini, cut into rounds
  • 1 red onion, chopped into 1 inch pieces
  • kosher salt and pepper
  • cup + 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • fresh chives, for topping
  • jasmine rice, for serving

Instructions 

  • Chop the chicken into pieces.
  • Make sure to chop the vegetables to be roughly the same size as the chicken pieces - in larger chunks. This helps the skewers stay uniform in size and helps everything cook in around the same amount of time.
  • Whisk together the ⅓ cup dijon, ¼ cup honey and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Make 5 to 6 chicken skewers: skewer a few pieces of vegetables first, then a chunk of chicken, more vegetables, a piece of chicken and so on. I do about 4 to 5 pieces of chicken per skewer, but this is totally up to you! Do as many as you wish. Season them all over with salt and pepper.
  • Once all the skewers are ready, place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle and brush most of the honey + dijon marinade mixture all over the skewers. Reserve the rest for after grilling. Let marinate for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the grill to the highest setting. In a small bowl, I whisk together the other 2 tablespoons of honey and 3 tablespoons of dijon, for brushing the skewers while grilling. This is optional but very delicious!
  • Place the skewers on the grill. Close the lid and grill for 5 minutes, then use grill tongs to gently turn them and grill for a few more minutes. Turn again once or twice more. I find these take about 10 to 12 minutes total - but make sure your chicken is at 165 degrees F when the internal temp is taken. A few minutes before they are finished, I brush them all over with the extra honey dijon.
  • Remove the skewers from the grill. You can brush with the reserved honey dijon. Serve with the jasmine rice.
