Grill time!!
These Garlic Chicken Kebabs will rock your socks off and here’s why. The chicken marinates in a simple, homemade lemon and garlic marinade. The acidity from the lemon juice both softens and adds flavor to the chicken. The end result is a perfect bite of chicken, waiting for you on the kebab.
And if you’re wondering if these are freezer friendly, the answer is yes! Because the way that the peppers, onions and zucchini cook on the grill, you don’t need to do anything special to them before adding them to skewers and putting into the freezer. I do recommend making the kebabs and then freezing them in a disposable foil tray, or other container that will keep them from getting squished by other meals you might have in the freezer.
Enjoy!
