Instructions
Creating Jalapeno Peach Chicken Skewers is a simple process. Follow these steps for wonderful results:
1. Prepare the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
2. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
4. Assemble the Skewers: Thread the marinated chicken, peach wedges, and jalapeno rings onto the skewers, alternating for a colorful presentation.
5. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it’s well-greased to prevent sticking.
6. Grill the Skewers: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
7. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
8. Remove and Rest: Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
These steps will guide you in creating these flavorful skewers effortlessly.
