Lemon and Garlic Grilled Chicken Skewers

July 24, 2013 By Karen Sorenson

During the summer I’m always looking for recipes to make for dinner that don’t require turning on the oven.  So that means I usually turn to the grill.  Grilling is a great option and it makes the after dinner clean up a breeze.  Even if you don’t own a grill, a grill pan works great for getting the same results as using an outdoor grill.

I love to pair citrus flavors with chicken, which makes a great light and refreshing summertime meal.  These Lemon and Garlic Grilled Chicken Skewers are bursting with flavor!  There’s no bland, same ole same ole, chicken breast going on here.  I served my chicken along side some grilled veggies, but the chicken would also be great on top of a salad.

  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 3 lemons
