Grilled Chicken Skewers are a fun & easy grilled chicken recipe that’s better than you find at the carnival. Seasoned to perfection & oh so delicious!
It’s grilling season! Have you noticed that we have been sharing more & more grilling recipes here? I’m pretty sure we have grilled 90% of our meals since the weather got nice.
For a while there we had rain, like every single day for a couple of weeks. I thought I was back at the apartment there was so much rain. No fun & I was sure missing the sunshine.
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Santa Rita wines. The opinions and text are all mine.
Chicken Skewers
But now that it’s back we are outside most of the time. I sure love it & I hope you have enjoyed all the summer dishes we have shared recently.
This one today, Grilled Chicken Skewers is one of my favorites. I always love making my favorite carnival foods at home & these chicken skewers were a great way to kick off the season.
One of my favorite parts about grilling is that we can also dine outside. We bring all our fixings out to the picnic table & enjoy some amazing food, we pour a glass of wine & we just feast.
For this we chose Santa Rita 120 Hero’s Reserve Red Blend & Santa Rita 120 Sauvignon Blanc from Chile because one of the things he remembers most about the summer was his parents always having wine with whatever they had grilled.

Here are some commonly asked questions
Can this recipe be doubled?
Absolutely! If you are making this for a crowd, you can definitely double or triple this recipe.
It’s absolutely divine. Such a great way to enjoy the meal. Along with our usual seasonings, we added Badia Complete Seasoning, which made the chicken so incredibly flavorful.
These are incredible. I can’t wait to do this again all through the summer.
HOW DO YOU MAKE Chicken Kabobs on the Grill?
- Preheat the grill to high heat. (400 degrees)
- Remove the chicken from the packaging & slice into thin strips.
- Fold each strip in an accordion-like pattern on a metal skewer.
- Place on a baking sheet.
- Combine the seasonings in a small bowl & sprinkle liberally over all sides of the chicken.
- Once the grill is hot, place the chicken on & allow it to sear for 60 seconds on each side.
- Turn down the heat to medium & continue cooking until juices run clear. (5-7 minutes each side)
- If you want to add sauce- either brush some on after the chicken is fully cooked or drizzle before serving.
What is the best way to store leftover BBQ Kebabs?
Remove the chicken from the skewer and place it in an airtight container. Keep refrigerated and use within 3 days.
Why choose 120 Sauvignon Blanc?
120 Hero’s Salute Red Blend is a deep, dark ruby-red color that features blueberry, plum and Cassis fruit aromas, along with spices and vanilla, coffee, and tobacco notes from the barrel-aging.
We cracked this one open for dessert. The palate has a sweet attack and evolution, with good volume, depth, and a fruity finish that leaves a refreshing mouthfeel.
120 Sauvignon Blanc has nuances of citrus fruit and white peach, supported by zesty acidity and smooth texture that lingers on the palate. It does well with fish, but I really liked it with this chicken.
