Ingredients
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 4 large cloves garlic minced
- Juice and zest of 1 large lemon
- 2 teaspoons fresh minced thyme
- 2 teaspoons fresh minced rosemary
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1" to 1½" pieces
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 3-4 large shallots peeled, root ends removed, and quartered
- 20 large red grapes
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine yogurt, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and zest, thyme, and rosemary. Add chicken pieces and fold to combine. Cover bowl and place in refrigerator to marinate for at least two hours, and up to six.
- In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, and remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Peel each quartered shallot into 2 pieces and add to the balsamic mixture. Fold gently to combine. Cover bowl and place in refrigerator until chicken is done marinating.
- Thread marinated chicken onto wood or metal skewers, alternating with the marinated grapes and shallots. Sprinkle kabobs with salt and pepper.
- Heat grill to medium/medium-high heat. Make sure grates are scrubbed clean and then oiled (see Notes).
- Place chicken kabobs on hot grill grates. Once they are beautifully charred on the underside, turn the kabobs over and continue to cook until charred again. The chicken should be cooked through after about 12 to 15 minutes of total grill time, although total time will depend on grill temperature and size of chicken pieces.
- Remove kabobs to a platter. Serve immediately, with fresh lemon wedges if desired.
Notes
- If using wooden skewers, place them in a shallow pan of water to soak. This will help them to not burn up as quickly on the grill.
- To oil the grates, add some vegetable oil to a small bowl. Then fold a heavy paper towel a few times to make a smaller square. With a tongs, grasp the folded paper towel and dip it into the oil until the paper towel is soaked. Then run the paper towel over the clean, hot grates, repeating until all grill grates are thoroughly oiled.
