Ingredients

  • 3 chicken breasts or boneless chicken thighs diced into 1 ½ inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper diced into 1 ½ inch pieces
  • ½ red onion diced into 1 ½ inch pieces
  • 2 cups teriyaki sauce
  • 2 tablespoon sesame seeds toasted, optional garnish

Instructions

  • If you're using wooden skewers, be sure and soak them for at least 30 minutes prior to grilling.
  • Combine the ingredients for the homemade teriyaki sauce and place in a large Ziploc bag or large bowl.
  • Dice the chicken into bite size pieces. Add the chicken to the marinade and soak for 30 minutes.
  • While the chicken is marinating, dice the vegetables into 1 ½ inch pieces.
  • Next, assemble the kabobs alternating meat and vegetables until you've used up all of the ingredients. Discard marinade, you cannot reuse it.
  • Grill for about 6 minutes each side or until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. Avoid overcooking, so the chicken doesn't dry out.
