Notes
Storage:
To Store: Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
To Freeze: Allow the chicken and veggies to cool completely and place in an airtight container or ziplock bag. Freeze for up to 1 month.
To Reheat: Defrost completely and reheat in the microwave.
Tips:
You can use wooden or bamboo skewers instead of metal, but make sure to soak them in cold water for at least 1 hour prior to assembling and cooking so they don’t burn.
Cutting the meat and veggies into uniform-sized pieces will ensure even cooking. If cooking on an outdoor grill, you can baste the chicken skewers while grilling so they don’t dry out. This will also add extra flavor.
Make sure to brush the grill skillet with oil to prevent the skewers from sticking.
