Ingredients
– 1 to 1 1/4 pounds chicken breasts
– 1 green pepper
– 1 red pepper
– 1 yellow onion
– Salt to taste
– 1 to 2 teaspoons garlic pepper seasoning
– 1 to 2 teaspoons chipotle seasoning
– 1 bottle chipotle honey grill sauce, approximately 12 to 16 oz
– 4 ears of corn
– 2 tablespoons roasted garlic infused oil
– 2 tablespoons softened butter
– 4 teaspoons garlic seasoning
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1-First Step: Prep the chicken and vegetables Start by chopping the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces if that has not been done already. Cut the green pepper, red pepper, and yellow onion into similar-sized chunks so they cook evenly on the skewers. Put the chicken in a large bowl and season it with salt, 1 to 2 teaspoons garlic pepper seasoning, and 1 to 2 teaspoons chipotle seasoning.
2-Second Step: Marinate for big flavor Move the seasoned chicken, peppers, and onion into a large zip-top plastic bag. Pour in 1 cup of the chipotle honey grill sauce, then seal the bag and gently massage everything so the sauce coats all the pieces. Place the bag in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight if you have the time. That longer rest gives you the deepest flavor and the juiciest chicken.
3-Third Step: Get the grill ready When you are ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Clean the grates and oil them lightly so the chicken does not stick. This is a good moment to get your skewers ready too, especially if you are using wooden skewers that need soaking first.
4-Fourth Step: Thread the skewers Take the chicken and vegetables out of the bag and thread them onto skewers, alternating pieces so each skewer has a nice mix of chicken, pepper, and onion. Do not pack them too tightly. A little space helps the heat move around the food and gives you better browning.
5-Fifth Step: Grill until cooked through Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for 12 to 15 minutes total. Turn them every 3 to 4 minutes so they brown evenly on all sides. While they cook, brush them with the remaining chipotle honey grill sauce for extra moisture and shine. Keep an eye on the chicken and pull it once the center is no longer pink and the juices run clear.
6-Sixth Step: Make the garlic grilled corn While the skewers are grilling, prepare the corn. Rub each ear with 1/2 tablespoon softened butter and 1/2 tablespoon roasted garlic infused oil, using the full totals of 2 tablespoons each for the four ears. Season each ear with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon garlic seasoning per ear, then wrap each one tightly in aluminum foil. Grill over medium-high heat for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and nicely warmed through.
7-Final Step: Serve hot and enjoy Take everything off the grill and let it rest for a minute or two before serving. Stack the skewers on a platter, unwrap the corn carefully, and serve while everything is hot. The sweet heat from the honey chipotle chicken and the garlicky corn makes a pretty perfect plate, especially when you want dinner to feel fun without a lot of cleanup.
