Lime Chicken Kabobs & BBQ veggies

Kabobs.jpeg

So a couple weeks ago I was totally craving some great BBQ food (the weather was warming up back then). I did a quick search but didn't find much that sounded good. That's when I got a little creative. The key lime juice really adds a great lime taste to the chicken, it also makes the chicken very tender while marinating. I had Nellie and Joe's Key Lime Juice in my fridge so I used that as the base for this masterpiece.



Lime Chicken Kabobs

6 T Key Lime Juice

6 T Soy Sauce

6 T Orange Peach Mango frozen juice concentrate

2 tsp minced garlic


Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and marinate for two hours. Put onto skewers and barbeque until cooked thoroughly.


BBQ Veggies

Zucchini

Yellow Squash

Red Onion

Asparagus

Tomatoes

Mushrooms

Parmesan Cheese (about 1/3 C, but depends on how many veggies you have)
Olive Oil (about 1/4 C, you want to lightly coat all the veggies)
Key Lime Juice (about 2 T, you want to lightly coat all the veggies)
Fresh Cracked Pepper (to taste)
Kosher Salt (to taste)

Cut the veggies into bite-sized pieces and place into a big bowl. Coat lightly with olive oil and key lime juice. Cook on the BBQ in a vegetable basket , adding the tomatoes half-way through. Once cooked, place into your serving bowl and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
