YUMMY HONEY CHICKEN KABOBS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together oil, honey, soy sauce, and pepper. Before adding chicken, reserve a small amount of marinade to brush onto kabobs while cooking. Place the chicken, garlic, onions and peppers in the bowl, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours (the longer the better).
• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Drain marinade from the chicken and vegetables, and discard marinade. Thread chicken and vegetables alternately onto the skewers.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until chicken juices run clear. Turn and brush with reserved marinade frequently.

HONEY-GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes to remove any dirt. Prick all over with a fork. Micro-cook the potatoes on high for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender but firm. Combine the honey, wine, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and mix well. Brush the vegetables with the honey marinade. Place the vegetables on skewers, if desired.
• Lightly oil the grill rack with vegetable oil. Heat the grill until the coals are somewhat gray with ash; the flame should be low. Place the skewered or loose potatoes, zucchini, eggplant, green pepper, red pepper, and onion directly on the greased grill. Grill the vegetables for about 10 minutes, brushing them with the honey marinade every few minutes and turning them after 5 minutes.

• Puree all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Season marinade with salt and black pepper to taste. Makes about 1 ¼ cups. Set aside. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• On each skewer, thread 2 shrimp, 2 chicken cubes, 2 pineapple cubes, 2 zucchini slices, 2 bell pepper squares, 2 cherry tomatoes, and 2 red onion wedges in any pattern you like.
• Place skewers on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Pour a third of the glaze over the skewers. (Can be prepped one day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before grilling.)
• Coat grill grates with nonstick spray or vegetable oil and preheat grill over medium.
• Grill skewers 4 minutes on one side then flip. Baste with another third of the glaze, keeping the remaining glaze separate for when serving.
• Continue grilling skewers until shrimp are opaque in the center, and chicken is no longer pink, another 3-4 minutes. Let skewers rest a few minutes before serving.
• Arrange skewers on platter. Garnish with sesame seeds, fresh herbs and lime wedges, if desired. Serve with remaining glaze. Enjoy!

GRILLED VEGETABLE SKEWERS WITH A HONEY SOY GLAZE

Steps:

• Make the glaze: Cook the honey in a medium saute pan over medium heat until golden brown and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, pearl onions, scallions and lemon zest and juice. Return the pan to the heat, add 1/4 cup water and a pinch of salt and cook until the onions are tender and the sauce is reduced, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the onions and let them cool. Keep the sauce warm.
• Skewer the vegetables: Start each skewer with a pearl onion followed by alternating 3 pieces pepper with 3 pieces zucchini and finishing with another pearl onion. Arrange the skewers in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Cook the vegetables: Preheat the grill for cooking at medium-high heat.
• Brush the skewers with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the skewers in a single layer on the hottest part of the grill. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then turn them on the other side and move them to a slightly cooler part of the grill if they are getting overdone. Cook until the vegetables are tender, an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer the skewers in a single layer to a large serving platter and spoon the glaze over them. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve.
