Notes

How do you store leftover kabobs?
If you have any leftover, storage is quite simple! All you need to do is remove the food items off the kabobs and place them in a storage container in the fridge. Then when you’re ready to eat, you just need to reheat and eat.
Since they won’t technically be kabobs anymore, they’re great to eat as is or to add to a salad or something such as that.
Do I need to soak my skewers?
YES! If you use wooden skewers make sure you soak them for at least 30 minutes before putting ingredients on you skewer. This prevents the skewer from burning when you grill them.
Can you cook kabobs in the oven?
Yes, if you don’t have a grill you can bake them in the oven. Place them on a sheet pan and bake them at 350°F for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
