Mushroom Plum Chicken Skewers
These fruit, vegetable, and chicken kabobs make a great appetizer or main dish. They're remarkably flavorful even though they're low in calories and fat.
Ingredients
-
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch cubes
-
16 button mushrooms
-
8 green onions, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
-
4 firm, ripe plums or 3 peaches, cut into wedges
-
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
-
2 tablespoons canola oil
-
1/4 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper
Directions
1.
On 8 12-inch metal or bamboo skewers, alternately thread chicken, mushrooms, green onions and plums.
2.
In a small bowl stir together vinegar and oil; brush on kabobs.
3.
For a charcoal grill, place skewers on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 12 to 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through, with no pink remaining, turning once halfway through grilling time. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place skewers on a grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.)
4.
Transfer skewers to serving platter; sprinkle with salt and freshly ground pepper.
