Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes

1 cup honey

1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred)

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for extra heat)

1 bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks (any color)

1 medium onion, cut into wedges

1 zucchini, sliced into thick rounds

Wooden or metal skewers (if using wooden, soak in water for 30 minutes)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside about 1/4 cup of the marinade for basting later.

    Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken cubes in a large resealable plastic bag or a glass dish. Pour the majority of the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for best flavor.

      Prep the Vegetables: While the chicken is marinating, prepare your vegetables. Cut the bell pepper, onion, and zucchini, and set aside.

        Skewer the Ingredients: Remove the marinated chicken from the fridge. On each skewer, alternate threading pieces of chicken with the vegetables: chicken, bell pepper, onion, zucchini, and repeat until the skewer is filled, leaving a little space at the ends.

          Grill the Kabobs: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the chicken kabobs on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

            Serve: Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with any leftover marinade that has been cooked down, and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired.

              Enjoy: Serve the Honey Garlic Asian Chicken Kabobs over steamed rice or alongside an Asian-style salad for a delightful meal!
