Instructions

1. In a small mixing bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients except for the olive oil. Once the mixture is well combined, slowly whisk in the olive oil. Pour into a 1- to 2-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add chicken and toss to coat. Refrigerate 1 to 3 hours to marinate. 2. Bring to room temperature before grilling. Soak 6 skewers in water for 10 minutes before adding meat and vegetables. Fit the Cuisinart® Griddler® Combo with both of the grill plates and preheat to high. 2. Divide chicken and vegetables among skewers – each skewer should have 2 pieces of chicken, 2 pieces of zucchini, 2 pieces of pepper, and 1 mushroom. 3. Once the grill is preheated, arrange the prepared kabobs across the grill plates evenly. Grill for 15 to18 minutes, turning a quarter-turn every 4 minutes, or until chicken is completely cooked and vegetables are tender with nice grill marks.
