Chicken Kebabs..


I love making these! They are so tender and easy! You can also use this recipe on chicken breasts for grilled chicken salads.. Add other veggies if you want or you can even marinate peeled shrimp to!

Ingredients:
12 oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast, cut into cubes (1 1/2 inches)
2 red bell peppers1 large
2 small yellow summer squash
1 onion
1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt
1 tsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. curry powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. saltDash paprika

Directions:
In a selable bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and paprika, and stir well. Add chicken and coat completely. Cover container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak four in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning. Cut peppers, squash, and onion into chunks equal in size to the chicken cubes. Skewer the chicken and veggies alternately onto four skewers, packing the pieces together tightly.Spray grill lightly with nonstick spray, and bring to medium-high heat.

Grill kebabs for 5 minutes with the grill cover down. Then carefully flip kebabs with long barbecue tongs.With the grill cover down, grill for another 5 - 7 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.Remove from grill and allow to cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, pull chicken and veggies off the sticks and eat!
