Equipment
- 1 grill preheated to medium-high heat
- 1 mixing bowl
- 8 Skewers wooden or metal
Ingredients
Skewers
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 ripe peaches pitted and cut into chunks
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Preparation
- Place the chicken pieces in a mixing bowl. Add BBQ sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- While the chicken marinates, cut the peaches into chunks that are roughly the same size as the chicken pieces.
Assembling the Skewers
- Alternately thread chicken pieces and peach chunks onto the skewers. Ensure an even distribution of ingredients on each skewer.
Grilling
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
- Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
Serving
- Remove skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Storage
- Store any leftover skewers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the grill or in a microwave before serving.
