Rosemary Ranch Chicken Kabobs

Prep time 40 minutes
Cook time 12 minutes
Serves 4

Ingredients:

1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup ranch dressing
3 TB Worcestershire sauce
1 TB minced fresh rosemary
2 tsp salt
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 TB white sugar
1 LB Chicken Breast, cut into small cubes for skewering

Instructions:

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, ranch, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, salt, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, pepper, and sugar. Add cubed chicken to the mixture, and cover, refrigerate, and marinade for 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill to 450 degrees. Skewer the chicken kabobs and discard remaining marinade. If you are using bamboo skewers, you’ll want to make sure you soak them in water for 1 hour, because it will prevent the skewers from burning.

Spray grill with nonstick spray. Grill chicken for a total of 12 minutes, turning one quarter turn every 3 minutes for even cooking. Serve warm.

Enjoy!
