Lemon Herb Shishkabobs



We love these things! The kids love to help make them and they LOVE to eat them as it's so much fun to eat things off a stick! :)

4 boneless, skinless Chicken Breasts, cubed (NOT cooked!)
6 giant white mushrooms, cut in thirds (or small button mushrooms, halved)
1 onion, cut in half then quartered
1 large zucchini, slice in 'circles', then either cut each circle in half, or quarter it
1 bell pepper, chopped (it's fun to use red or yellow or orange for some color)

OR

if you don't have zucchini or peppers (or don't like them), I've used carrots, cauliflower and broccoli! Tastes just as good. I think the kids like this way more anyway.

**Place all the veggies into a gallon size ziplock bag. The, add the marinade:

1 Tbsp seasoned salt
1/2 tsp pepper

3 large cloves garlic, pressed

2 Tbsp each fresh basil, oregano, and parsley
(can also add rosemary and thyme!)
the juice of one whole Lemon
3 Tbsp Olive Oil

1/4 cup water

1-2 Tbsp Balsamic vinegar


Let sit in marinade at room temp for about an hour, then refrigerate and marinade for 6-8 hours.

Thread everything onto skewers. Place on cookie sheet



and Broil until done! (In our oven, it took about 6 minutes; 3 minutes, then turn, then 3 minutes longer.) I serve this with:



fried rice
and salad.
