Maple Dijon Chicken Kabobs

Ingredients

  • 2/3 C Dijon mustard
  • 1/3 C pure maple syrup
  • 1 Tb white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 lb chicken breast
  • Chives or rosemary sprigs for topping

Directions

  1. Stir the first 5 ingredients together until the sauce is smooth and well blended. Pour half of it into a gallon-sized plastic bag or storage container, then cover the rest and keep it aside.
  2. Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes. Add the chicken to the bag with the sauce, close it up, and move everything around until the pieces are coated. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours so the chicken can marinate.
  3. While the chicken chills, soak 8-10 wood skewers.
  4. Thread the chicken onto the soaked skewers, dividing it evenly.
  5. Set the grill to low heat and cook the kabobs for 15 minutes, turning them every 3-5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred all over.
  6. Right before serving, brush the skewers with the sauce you set aside, then scatter chives or rosemary sprigs over the top. Serve the extra reserved sauce alongside for dipping.
