Chicken Kabobs

During summer, we are meant to be in flip flops, eating easy skewer recipes like this one (or Shrimp Kabobs with Pineapple), and wiping away the watermelon juice that’s running down our chins.

These Greek chicken kabobs have pieces of juicy chicken flavored with an easy marinade and a colorful stack of veggies.They can be prepped ahead for a cookout or assembled at the last minute when you need to land a healthy meal on the table before hangry pandemonium sets in.

Grilled chicken kabobs are fast and nutritious, and like a Skinny Margarita on a hot day, they never fail to hit the spot.
