Try out these recipes this year for healthier alternatives that will highlight the fresh flavors of summer!

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs chicken, cut into 1 in cubes

  • ⅓ cup olive oil

  • ⅔ cup balsamic vinegar

  • 4 drops Rosemary Vitality essential oil

  • 2 drops Black Pepper Vitality essential oil

  • 5 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 2 Tbsp coconut aminos

  • Vegetables for the kabobs: mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash, and cherry tomatoes


Directions:

  1. Add chicken and all ingredients except the vegetables to a bowl. Toss to mix the ingredients together and make sure the marinade covers the chicken. Cover and let sit in the refrigerator overnight, 12-24 hours.

  2. Prep your vegetables by cutting them into ½ inch slices or halving them to fit onto the kabob sticks.

  3. Assemble your kabobs by alternating between each type of vegetable and the chicken. Either cook on your grill, or in a large skillet on your stove top, about 5 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through.
