Garlic Lime Chicken Kabobs

Limes are in abundance at our house this summer.  We buy them by the bag and they've shown up in Blueberry Lime Muffincakes, marinades, a cocktail or two...ya know, the usual.  I just love the flavor, I even prefer a slice of lime or two with my ginger ale.  This marinade was so easy and made for a delicious, lower calorie meal.  We opted to stay away from hot dogs and hamburgers this past Memorial Day/4th of July/any grilling adventure and made our own marinade with garlic, lime and various spices.

Ingredients:
2-3 Lime juice, a couple
Fresh Cilantro, chopped
Garlic Powder - I use powder when I make a marinade because it's more likely to equally distribute amongst the chicken, peppers than crushed garlic.
S/P
Crushed Red Pepper
1/4 cu of vegetable or olive oil
1.5 lbs of chicken

[3] Bell Peppers

[1] Lg. Onion

Directions:
1. Soak skewers in water for about 25-30 minutes
2. Mix first [5] ingredients then whisk in oil 
3. Chop peppers and onions into large pieces; use kitchen shears to cut chicken breasts/tenders into medium size pieces.
4. Submerge vegetables and chicken in marinade, toss and let sit in fridge anywhere from 30 minutes to overnight.

5. Skewer chicken & peppers in any way you like.  Leave room at the top and bottom of the skewer to handle while on the grill and eating.

6.  Grill skewers 3-4 minutes per side - grilling time depends on how large you cut your chicken.  With chicken, you want to make sure the juices run clear and is no longer pink in the center.

7.  Squeeze fresh lime juice over the skewers when they come off the girl and either eat them on a long roll, over salad or by themselves, it's all good!

8.  Enjoy!
