Why You’ll Love This Recipe:
- Fast & flavorful: Marinate, skewer, grill — done!
- Colorful & crowd-pleasing: Eye-catching for parties or picky eaters.
- Family-friendly: Mild seasoning with a sweet, smoky BBQ glaze.
- Customizable: Swap the veggies or sauce for your favorites.

Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 red bell pepper, cubed
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cubed
- 1 green bell pepper, cubed
- 1 orange bell pepper, cubed
- 1 sweet onion, cut into chunks
- 2–3 tablespoons Lawry’s Total Seasoning (or any all-purpose blend)
- 1 cup BBQ sauce (plus extra for basting)
- Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 20–30 minutes to prevent burning

Instructions:
1. Prep the Ingredients
Soak your skewers in water for at least 20–30 minutes. While they soak, cube your chicken breasts and chop all the bell peppers and onion into even pieces.
2. Season the Chicken
In a large bowl, toss the chicken cubes with Lawry’s Total Seasoning. Let the chicken sit for about 10–15 minutes to absorb all that flavor while your grill heats up.
3. Assemble the Skewers
Thread the seasoned chicken, bell peppers, and onion onto the soaked skewers. Alternate the colors for a pretty presentation — red, yellow, green, orange, repeat!
4. Grill the Kabobs
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 10–12 minutes, turning every few minutes to get even char marks.
5. Baste with BBQ Sauce
During the last 5 minutes of grilling, start brushing your kabobs with BBQ sauce. Flip and baste a few times until the sauce caramelizes and gets sticky and glossy.
6. Serve & Enjoy
Remove from the grill and let rest for 2–3 minutes. Serve hot with extra BBQ sauce on the side — or over rice, with grilled corn, or a fresh summer salad.

Tips for Success:
- Soak the skewers! This helps prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Even cuts = even cooking. Try to make sure all chicken and veggies are about the same size.
- Use your favorite BBQ sauce. Sweet, smoky, or spicy — whatever you love will work here.
- Meal prep tip: Leftovers reheat well and are great in wraps or on top of salads.

Make It a Meal:
Pair these BBQ chicken kabobs with:
- Creamy coleslaw
- Garlic butter corn on the cob

This recipe is one of those “save it and make it again” kind of meals. Whether you’re grilling on a summer night or just craving that smoky BBQ flavor, these kabobs hit the spot every time. They’re colorful, fun, and most importantly — delicious!
