Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

For the Marinade and Glaze

  • 0.5 cup peach preserves
  • 0.25 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

For the Kabobs

  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 medium ripe peaches, pitted and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 0.5 large red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the peach preserves, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic. This will be your marinade and glaze.
  • Reserve about half of the marinade for glazing later. Add the chicken pieces to the remaining marinade, toss to coat, and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
  • Thread the marinated chicken, peach chunks, and red onion pieces onto skewers, alternating the ingredients. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent burning.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Grill the kabobs for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the peaches and onions are slightly charred and tender.
  • During the last 5 minutes of grilling, brush the kabobs generously with the reserved glaze. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remove from grill and serve hot.

Notes

These kabobs are delicious served with rice or a fresh salad.
