Description

Delicious skewers combining sweet peaches and spicy jalapenos, perfect for summer barbecues.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Chicken Breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 medium Fresh Peaches, sliced into thick wedges
  • 2 medium Jalapenos, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice

Instructions

  1. Start by preparing your ingredients for the skewers. Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes, ensuring they are of uniform size for even cooking. Slice the peaches into thick wedges, keeping the skin on.
  2. Combine olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, honey, and lime juice in a bowl. Add cubed chicken, sliced peaches, and jalapenos, tossing until well-coated. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  3. Assemble the skewers by alternating pieces of chicken, peach, and jalapeno. Soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.
  4. Cook the skewers on a preheated grill over medium-high heat for about 10-12 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked.
  5. Serve the skewers on a large platter garnished with chopped cilantro or crumbled feta.

Notes

For extra heat, add red pepper flakes or a spicier variety of jalapenos. You can substitute peaches with mango or pineapple for a different twist.
