It’s summer, and what screams summer more than grilling?!!  Ok, pools, popsicles, all of Esther’s yummy cocktails (!!)….ok, a lot of things scream summer.  BUT…grilling.  YUM!

I’ve talked many times about my love of grilling.  Ok, the EASE of grilling!!  It used to intimidate me, but now I LOVE it!  I usually do whole chicken breasts, but decided to try and do shish kabobs.  SO GOOD! Ingredients (varies people you want to feed)

• Chicken Breasts (cut into 1-1.5 inch cubes)
• Bell Peppers-I used red, yellow, and orange (cut into 1-1.5 inch cubes)
• Large Onion (cut into 1-1.5 inch cubes)
• Olive Oil
• Balsamic Vinegar
• Trader Joe’s Every Day Seasoning

What to do

• It’s not absolutely necessary, but if you can marinate the chicken a few hours before you’d like to grill, that’s the best.  Just put the cubed chicken in a bowl.  Drizzle with olive oil, balsamic, and grind the Trader Joe’s Every Day Seasoning over it.  I honestly had all these ideas of various spices I was going to add, and then (OF COURSE!) was running late and reached for what’s easy, and good!
• Do the same for the veggies (not as necessary to have those marinate!)
• You can use wooden sticks to spear all the meat and veggies.  If you do, make sure you soak the them for a good 10 minutes prior.
• Preheat  your grill to medium heat.
• Evenly spear chicken and veggies until everything is used up.Grill for 7-8 minutes on each side. Oh, and Maya is in this stage where she doesn’t want her picture taken, UNLESS I’m trying to take pictures of something other than her… haha.

Enjoy!
