| Yield: 4 | Portion: 2 Kabobs |
| Prep Time: 10 Minutes | Cook Time: 20 Minutes | Total Time: 30 Minutes |
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lb. Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, diced into 1-inch cubes
- The Bearded Butcher Blend Hollywood Seasoning
- 1/4 Cup Oil, neutral oil
- 2 large Red Onions, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 4 Bell Peppers, Tri-color and Green Bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 Pineapple, peeled, cored, and diced into 1-inch chunks
- 1 lb. Baby Bella Mushrooms, left whole
- 2 Small Zucchini, cut into 1/2 inch Coins
- The Bearded Butcher Barbeque Sauce
- Wooden Skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)
Instructions:
- Prep the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the diced chicken with a drizzle of oil, and a generous amount of Bearded Butcher Blend Hollywood Seasoning. Toss to coat evenly.
- Assemble the Kabobs: Thread the chicken, onion, bell pepper, zucchini, mushroom, and pineapple pieces alternately onto the soaked wooden skewers. For extra flavor, sprinkle Bearded Butcher Hollywood Seasoning over the assembled kabobs. For a visually appealing presentation, try to create a colorful pattern.
- Grill to Perfection: Preheat your smoker to 400°F. Lightly brush the kabobs with oil. Grill for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Smother each kabob with The Bearded Butcher Barbeque Sauce. Don't forget this step, it truly elevates the final flavor!
Tips:
- For extra smoky flavor, marinate the chicken in the Hollywood Seasoning for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- If you prefer a sweeter kabob, increase the amount of pineapple. Experiment with different types of peppers for added heat or sweetness.
- To measure the internal temperature of the chicken, be sure to use a digital meat thermometer for accuracy.
- Consider skewing the mushrooms at the very top and bottom of each skewer. They tend to be durable and will not slide off like other vegetables.
These Hollywood Chicken Kabobs are a delicious and refreshing summer treat that's perfect for entertaining guests or a weeknight meal. They are a quick and easy meal, coming together in just 30 minutes. The combination of sweet pineapple, savory chicken, and the bold flavors from the tangy BBQ sauce along with the sweet notes of Bearded Butcher Blend Hollywood Seasoning creates a truly unforgettable taste experience.
