Sweet & Savory Sunday: Kebobs

My brother-in-law Ryan's parents introduced us to this simple yet delicious meal & its become an Oldroyd family favorite over the years for sure.  With the blended flavors of grilled veggies & meat marinated in a zesty dressing, it hits the spot in such a healthy way.  A great thing about Kebobs is you can make them to order.  More veggies, sure!  More meat?  Great!  Don't like something on the menu?  Leave it off!

Meat: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts and/or round steak (figure about 1/2 lb. of meat per person)
Veggies/Fruit ideas: red onion, bell peppers, yellow squash, zucchini squash, white mushroom caps, pineapple, cherry tomatoes
Dressing: Kraft Greek Vinaigrette 


Steps:
  1. A few hours before assembling your kebobs, cube the meat (keep chicken & steak separate!)  and marinade in a little bit of the dressing.  
  2. Soak bamboo skewers in water while cutting veggies to help the sticks from burning on the grill
  3. Cut up veggies & fruit into good size chunks, rinse & de-stem mushrooms
  4. Assemble kebobs (still keeping chicken & steak separate since they cook at different rates)
  5. After assembled, squirt each skewer with some of the Greek dressing to coat the veggies.
  6. Start grilling the chicken ones first (on medium heat) since they're slower to cook (if you're doing both meats)
  7. Use a leather workglove to rotate the skewers on the grill
  8. When done, allow to sit for a few minutes & then dig in!

We like to eat these with a side of Mahatma yellow rice and/or homemade rolls.  These also make great leftovers!  Enjoy!

I've tasted those bad boys, and I can confirm that they're wicked good. Makes me hungry just looking at them. Now I'm actually caressing the screen. And sniffing. Ok, now it's getting weird.
