Description
Grilled Honey BBQ Bacon Chicken Kabobs are a delicious and flavorful dish that combines tender chicken, crispy bacon, and a sweet and tangy marinade.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 6 slices of bacon, cut into thirds
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
- Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated chicken and pieces of bacon onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and bacon.
- Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
- Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For added flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
- Substitute the chicken with shrimp or vegetables for a different twist.
