Chicken Marinade

Rice

Vegetables

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add to the marinade. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

  3. 3

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, cut the red onion and bell peppers into chunks. Set aside.

Preparing Rice

  1. 4

    Rinse the Rice

    Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

  2. 5

    Cook the Rice

    In a saucepan, combine rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Grilling Kabobs

  1. 6

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Kabobs

    Thread the marinated chicken, red onion, and bell peppers onto skewers, alternating ingredients as desired.

  3. 8

    Grill the Kabobs

    Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

Grilling Vegetables

  1. 9

    Prepare Vegetables for Grilling

    Slice the zucchini into rounds and place in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat.

  2. 10

    Grill the Vegetables

    Place the zucchini and cherry tomatoes on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until tender, turning occasionally.

Serving

  1. 11

    Serve the Dish

    Serve the grilled chicken kabobs alongside the cooked basmati rice and grilled vegetables. Enjoy your meal!
