Method
- Firstly place the 4 wooden skewers into a large tray and soak them with cold water, this will prevent them from burning
- Cut the chicken breasts, red pepper, onion and courgette into 2cm pieces and add to the bowl, then season with sea salt and black pepper to taste
- Toss all the ingredients to coat and cover with cling film
- Leave to marinate in the fridge for 2 hours but preferably overnight if you can
- After marinating, divide and thread the ingredients between your skewers, making sure you skewer the chicken pieces in between any two vegetables
- Drizzle the skewers with a little olive oil and preheat the barbecue
- Arrange the kebabs on the rack and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning the skewers until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and golden and the vegetables are just tender
- Once cooked arrange the kebabs on a platter, scatter with fresh parsley and serve while still warm with a fresh leafy salad, tzatziki dip and gluten free pitta breads*.
