A small circle of friends were gathered and one stepped into the circle and shared a duty that they were asked to do. Let’s just say she let us know how unhappy she was about it. Continue reading “Stop Complaining”→
Chicken – we love it any way it comes, but I especially love it when it is grilled! All those charred bits of goodness on the edges….Mmmm!
My go-to grilled chicken has been just barbecued because I haven’t had much success with chicken marinades UNTIL I found this recipe!! This Greek yogurt marinade really sticks to and absorbs into the chicken. It all makes these kabobs so flavorful!
Greek Chicken Kabobs
Ingredients
For the marinade:
1/2cupplain Greek yogurt(use full fat yogurt for best results)
3-4boneless,skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch pieces for skewers – You can use boneless thighs, if you prefer.
1large red bell pepper,seeded and cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1medium red onion,cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
6-8skewers(if using wooden skewers soak in water for 30-minutes before grilling)
Instructions
Combine all the marinade ingredients in a large ziplock bag. Seal and massage the bag to combine all the ingredients.
Add the chicken to the bag turning to coat. Marinate for 4-24 hours. Turn the bag a few times while marinating.
Preheat gas grill to 400F.
Pour the marinated chicken pieces into a large strainer to remove the excess marinade. Thread chicken pieces onto the skewers alternating with peppers and onions. Grill until the chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.
Note: You don’t have to make kabobs; you can marinade and grill larger pieces of chicken, just adjust your cooking time.
These are delicious served alongside this pita bread. We filled our pita bread with the kabob meat and veggies! Yum!!
Grilled chicken is unbelievably delicious! You will want this recipe on repeat, I promise!
Wow, I had another surprise event this week, unlike the fun birthday surprises I enjoyed earlier in the month! This one sent my husband to a retina specialist while we were in upper New York state last week.
Call it age, call it lazy, but I’m changing my game this year with my fall decor. Instead of spreading fall leaves, pumpkins and corn stalks everywhere (well I never have spread corn stalks everywhere, but for the sake of making my point I’ll add them!), I’m choosing to make a few groupings.
Here’s a peek ~
The living room touches:
A little touch in the kitchen. Remember my Dollar Tree box I made using the two signs?
I set the dining room table in fall decor for a luncheon I had a few weeks ago ~
I love the turquoise and gold together on the table!
Look how it sets off the food so beautifully…
Then outside at my mailbox ~
This mum came back from last year. It’s a whopper, isn’t it? I’m loving it! It’s going to be stunning in a few days! I may add some real pumpkins in a week or so, but for now I think the flowers speak for themselves!
I had the blessing of being in upstate New York last weekend where the colors were just beginning to turn. It made me excited for fall to come to the south!
I’m still changing what you see here. Simplicity is what I’m longing for and maybe you saw a book here that is inspiring me in that direction? I’ll keep you posted on how that turns out!
Do you decorate your home for fall? If so, do you go all out or do you add only a few touches?
