Ingredients
– 1 to 1.25 pounds chicken breasts, chopped into 1-inch pieces
– 1 green pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
– 1 red pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
– 1 yellow onion, chopped into 1-inch pieces
– Salt, to taste
– 1 to 2 teaspoons garlic pepper seasoning
– 1 to 2 teaspoons chipotle seasoning
– 1 bottle chipotle honey grill sauce
– 4 ears of corn, husked and cleaned
– 2 tablespoons roasted garlic infused oil
– 2 tablespoons softened butter
– 4 teaspoons garlic garlic seasoning
– Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1-First Step: Prep the chicken and vegetables Start by chopping the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Then cut the green pepper, red pepper, and yellow onion into 1-inch pieces too. Keeping everything close in size helps the skewers cook evenly, which is important for juicy grilled chicken skewers.
2-Second Step: Season the chicken Place the chicken in a bowl and season it with salt, garlic pepper seasoning, and chipotle seasoning. Toss it well so every piece gets coated. This first layer of seasoning gives the chicken a deeper flavor before the sauce even hits it.
3-Third Step: Marinate the chicken and vegetables Add the chicken and chopped vegetables to a zip top bag. Pour in 1 cup of the chipotle honey grill sauce. Seal the bag, squeeze out extra air, and massage it gently so the sauce covers everything. Let it marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or overnight if you want a stronger flavor.
4-Fourth Step: Get the grill ready When you are ready to cook, follow your usual grilling setup and light the grill safely. Preheat it to medium-high heat. For many grills, that means somewhere around 400 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Clean and oil the grates if needed so the skewers do not stick.
5-Fifth Step: Thread the skewers Take the marinated chicken and vegetables out of the bag and thread them onto skewers, alternating chicken, pepper, and onion pieces. Leave a little space between each piece so the heat can move around them. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them first so they do not burn.
6-Sixth Step: Grill the chicken skewers Place the skewers over medium-high heat and grill for 12 to 15 minutes. Turn them every 3 to 4 minutes so they cook evenly on all sides. Brush them with the remaining chipotle honey grill sauce as they cook, especially during the last few minutes. The chicken is done when it is no longer pink in the center and reaches a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
7-Seventh Step: Make the garlic grilled corn While the skewers are grilling, prepare the corn. Rub each ear with 0.5 tablespoon butter and 0.5 tablespoon roasted garlic infused oil. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic garlic seasoning. Wrap each ear in aluminum foil, then place it on the grill over medium-high heat. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender.
8-Eighth Step: Serve and enjoy Let the skewers rest for a couple of minutes before serving. This helps the juices settle back into the chicken. Serve the skewers with the garlic grilled corn and spoon a little extra sauce over the top if you like that sticky finish. This meal is perfect for four servings and feels like a full cookout dinner with barely any mess.
