These Grilled Honey-Soy Chicken Skewers are a delightful twist on a classic kebab recipe, featuring a flavorful marinade and vibrant vegetables.
Combine the honey, soy sauce, cumin, cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
Mix the marinade thoroughly to ensure all the spices are evenly distributed.
Reserve a small portion of the marinade for basting during grilling.
Keep the reserved marinade separate to avoid cross-contamination.
Add the chicken, garlic, onion, and bell peppers to the remaining marinade and mix well.
Ensure all pieces are evenly coated with the marinade for maximum flavor.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Longer marination allows the flavors to penetrate deeper into the chicken.
Thread the chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces for a colorful presentation.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is hot before placing the skewers to achieve nice grill marks.
Grill the skewers for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade.
Cook until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are slightly charred.
Serve the skewers hot with your choice of side dishes.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added freshness.
